Hi all! I am having a little trouble. I bought a DVD+RW/CD burner. I can get the DVDs to write over to the computer and they will read using PowerDVD 5; however, I am trying to get Windows Media player and an MP3 player to also be able to read/view the DVDs. PowerDVD writes the files as .VOB. I've tried the numerous converts online and they all seem to take FOREVER to convert the files. There has got to be an easier way!!! I need to know the following:
1. Is there a fast converter out there that would fix my problem?
2. Is there a PowerDVD 5 setting I am missing that would allow me to initially write the files as .wmv - save the "middle man"

How do you change VOB to WMV efficiently and painlessly??
