    I want to edit out a section of a VOB that contains adverts for Alex Jones 911 road to tyranny. I have burned copys of the DVD but want to avoid projecting the idea of selling them, by removing the commercial
    section at the end of the last VOB. What can I use for editing Thanks

    A good method not mentioned about is using vitualmod and vobedit together .

    I use virtualdub to create a script that load's the required vob's in the correct order .

    Open this with vitualdub , then simply scan forward to the first frame before the (non wanted item) .

    Open notepad , add this frame number .

    Now locate the last frame of this (non wanted item) , and add this to note pad .

    Save this as "CellTimes" .

    Use vobedit to demux the complete title set , 1 video stream , and one audio stream .

    This will depend also on what ifoedit will accept as in audio format ... I have alway's converted audio to ac3 using besweet , as this work's fine in ifoedit .

    Now open ifoedit , go to "author dvd" , load your m2v , load the audio , and now load that CellTimes.txt file .

    Choose a location for it to be writen too , and go .

    -----------------------------------------------------------

    Using vobedit again , demux this new title via "cell id" , to a new folder .

    Delete the origianl title that ifoedit created after this is done .

    Locate the (non wanted item) , and delete it now .

    Create a new folder .
    Place first vob here , name it vts_01_001
    Place second vob here , name it vts_01_002

    So on ..

    Vob files after 009 name's become 010 , 011 , 012 , ect ...

    Open the vts_01_001 in vobedit
    Choose "edit" , then join vob cell's .
    Choose a new folder for it to be written too , and go .

    ----------------------------------------------------------

    Close vobedit , open ifoedit .

    Go to folder where this new title was created , dont delete the vob's , but everything can go .

    In ifoedit , choose "create ifo's" .
    Load you first vob file , leave the setting's alone , and go .

    When completed , hit "get vts sectors" .

    You now have 4 item's in the above box , you will be checking the last 2 only .

    Check video info and audio info to see if they are correct .

    This gose for both video_ts , and vts_01_1.ifo .

    Those that need editing , just double click on them , make modification's .

    If this was video_ts , hit "save" now .

    You now need to repeat those same edit's in that last ifo , and again , when done , use "save" .

    -------------------------------------------------------------

    This will now play in nero showtime .

    ------------------------------------------------------------

    You can now burn this as is or reuse vobedit to demux into stream's , and import these into your favourite dvd editing suite .

    Enjoy .

    -----------------------------------------------------------

    As for chopper xp , it is choppy .

    Sometime's it work's , and other time's it's like flogging a dead horse and wont do anything .

    Yes. I didn´t mean it was the best software.
    If you have a better choice, go for it.
