Replacement for VOBrator?

vStrip is not so hard to use, it even has a GUI. If you can give some of the basic things you have to do with VOBRator perhaps we can give you the equivalent vStrip command or GUI manipulation. If you rip directly from DVD, SmartRipper & DVDDecrypter are even easier to use. It depend of what you want to do.

All I want to do is to have a bunch of already ripped, non-CSS VOB files stripped down to the component M2V and AC3 files, that's all.

Hi easy, I recently wrote some code for myself to do that. Its still command line though. but Ive been meaning to wrap a little gui round it. (its based on the demux code from libmpeg2) (at present its: demux file.vob e0 to get the video or demux file.vob bd 80 to first ac3 stream etc. Ill wrap a little gui round it so you can have multiple vobs.) Ill look at vobrator & see if I can get round to making a similar not crashing version for you :) Cheers, -Nic ps But dont hold your breath, im really busy at present, but its something ive been meaning to finish for a while. pps @anyone: What do those three bytes after the SubstreamID in the private stream equal?

Mines in C++ too imaginatively called CDemux lol :) Thanks for the link, didnt think to look at MPUCoder's, followed the link to private_stream_1 & voila. (Id never bother'ed to find out what they were lol just saw the ac3 sync byte and realised I needed to cut them to get to the ac3 stream out ;) ) -Nic
