i've been looking how to encode vob files into divx avi files, and without fail following any of the howto's i google resulted in failure.

i have mencoder installed, vobcopy. i have the vob files and they play perfectly. what do i need to execute to convert them into mpeg4 avi files?

So you need to fit a DVD onto a CD;)

Here's what I did. For each .vob file

mencoder -oac lavc -ovc lavc -lavcopts \
acodec=mp3:abitrate=192:vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=800 -vf scale=512:384 \
-o your.avi your.vob \

then concatenate the avi's
cat your1.avi your2.avi ... yourn.avi > all.avi

and then fix the resulting avi with

mencoder -idx all.avi -ovc copy -oac copy -o result.avi

HTH,

it doesn't have to fit on a cd, just a single layer dvd. so only a small reduction in size is needed. initally when i tried your command it errored whinging about not having a subfont.tff, so i just pointed it to a generic ttf i had, it then bombed out with this

mencoder -oac lavc -ovc lavc -lavcopts \
acodec=mp3:abitrate=192:vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=800 -font /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/bitstream-vera/Vera.ttf \
-o 1.avi  the_video_you_wanted1-1.vob \
