Ok, so as a test, I followed your instructions from Re: Can’t Convert Movies From DVDs?
1.) Rip .vob files from DVD with DVDFab HD Decrypter (free).
2.) Merge .vob files with (what else?) VOBMerge (also free).
3.) Convert merged .vob files to .avi with WinFF (free again).
4.) Final conversion & transfer to player or memory card with SMC (yep, free too).
5.) Enjoy the show!
ran this on a dvd short student film i had just to see if it would all work right, and sure enough it did. so now im going to try it on a larger file, but my concern is that in the end i will end up with an improperly decrypted video that wont play on the fuze, again, but since ive had luck with this last smaller video, i’ll try it again. As for now i have set aside trying to get the “digital copies” to play, too much of a headache for someone whos no guru at this stuff yet. Again, thanks for your guidance with these issues.
