    Fixed the thread title to conform to AD rules.

    To make menus for your VOBs you'll need to author a new DVD from them. Depending on what program you use to author you may need to demux the video and audio streams first, but you won't lose any quality that way. If you don't have any authorins software already, I'd recommend reading through the Links & Resources sticky at the top of this forum to point you in the right direction.

    If you already own TMPGEnc DVD Author and DVD Lab Pro why not use one of those? I use DLP personally, but unless you get into advanced features it's pretty much all about personal preference.

    I haven't tried TMPGEnc DVD Author in a while, but unless it's changed drastically since v1 it's about as easy as you can get if you want menus. IIRC it has a wizard and templates that do most of the work for you. I'm not aware of any software that would make it any easier.

    Why not use Nero Vision Express to put them onto a DVD and author a Menu for them at the same time? VSO ConvertXtoDVD can also do this.

    That, In My OPionion, is easier than reauthorsing your VOBs.
