aha thanx for replying ummmmmmm, correct if I'm wrong: you want me to rip the whole DVD with File Mode rather the IFO mode ok I'll do it, then I should rip only the VOBs, merge them with MPEG Mediator, one big file of VOB (I don't care about the titles, menues...etc most wanted is VIDEO) then I load this BIG vob file into the AutoGK so the question now is does MPEG Mediator can merge those VOBs or it can take all the small VOBs in a batch manner to make an only 1 avi file?
