    Sorry if this is in the wrong place, if it is I'll move it to where I should. Here's what I'm doing. Basically I just recorded a football game off of tv on my dvd recorder with a dvdrw. What I want to do is cut out the commmercials and trim off some of the beginning and end off. I then want to copy it to dvd-r. I do have experience backing up dvds and so far have gone through my normal procedure of ripping with dvd decrypter(ISO read) and backing up with DVD shrink. My problem is when I try to edit it on Nero Express, it says that the amount of time I want to remove will make video uncompatable. Do I need to convert the VOB files to Mpeg or avi? Please somebody help, this is driving me nuts. thank you

    If U have just 1 long mpeg file U can use MPEG VCR TO edit out the comercials...http://www.womble.com/..if u have the experience & common sense U will find this very easy..I use the key pad to move while holding down the main mouse button..U can do the same in your control panel go to accessibility options,select Mouse then just check use mouse keys..with this u can easily navigate back & forth on you commercials..Their is a little bit to learn..but with a little trial & error it wont take long..U can even use this program to join all your files [vob's etc]..when u are finished..you will most definetly need to reconvert these files back to DVD..I use TMPG DVD..IT BURNS AS WELL
    Don't GET THE WIZARD !!!..it is most complicated..Just get the little Mpeg to VCR..it in no way changes anything other then cutting out the sections u don't want..if u make a mistake u still have your original file & can start over..or if u catch it soon enough u can just undo your last step..IF U KNOW ABOUT TORRENTS U CAN PROBABLY FIND WHAT U NEED ON THE NET
