The following command mencoder Videos/Test/VIDEO_TS/VTS_01_1.VOB -oac copy -ovc x264 -x264encopts bitrate=2500 -o output.aviĭid some converting, but is (i) using subtitles although I did not want to use them (ii) got the audio wrong (audio and video is terribly misplaced) and (iii) seems to be slower than the movie actually goes (might take 2 hours for a 90 minute movie). But very soon I encountered many errors of the form frame sync error The following command avconv -i Videos/Test/VIDEO_TS/VTS_01_1.VOB -f avi -c:v mpeg4 -b:v 800k -g 300 -bf 2 -c:a ac3 -b:a 128k output.aviįor example seemed to work for some frames. The following command avconv -i Videos/Test/VIDEO_TS/VTS_01_1.VOB -f avi -c:v mpeg4 -b:v 800k -g 300 -bf 2 -c:a libmp3lame -b:a 128k output.aviįor example resulted in the following error: Error while opening encoder for output stream #0:1 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height

The following command avconv -i Videos/Test/VIDEO_TS/VTS_01_1.VOB -acodec copy -vcodec copy output.aviįor example resulted in the following error: Application provided invalid, non monotonically increasing dts to muxer in stream 1: 374 >= 374Īv_interleaved_write_frame(): Invalid argument The following command ffmpeg -i Videos/Test/VIDEO_TS/VTS_01_1.VOB -ss 589 -t 274 -sameq -acodec copy -ab 320k output.aviįor example resulted in a crash of my Ubuntu session. The ffmpeg command gives the following output for the input file Input #0, mpeg, from 'Videos/Test/VIDEO_TS/VTS_01_1.VOB':ĭuration: 00:04:53.32, start: 0.045500, bitrate: 29284 kb/s I would appreciate some explanations on the suggested options! So what options should I use to have the VOB file converted to an avi file? I tried some ffmpeg and avconv commands and managed to create an avi, but the video and audio were completly out of sync.

with the subtitle as required (or no one at all).

I would prefer to have a command line solution to create an avi with the following features:

I tried acidrip as well, but it always choose an audio track I did not want to use.

I tried dvdrip, which failed due to a frame count error or something. I am trying to convert a VOB file copied from a DVD into an avi in Ubuntu 13.10.

Ffmpeg extract frames from vob
