I am working on a project for my Grandmother which contains about 4 hours of video that i saved to my computer off of a DVD made from all of there old 8mm film. The problem besides the fact that im inexperienced is that when i drag it up onto the timeline its only 38 seconds long but when i click anywhere in the clip it will play a different 38 seconds from each place i click. i need to know how to get it all separated or if it’s just too big of a file.

What did you copy from the DVD, and how did you do it?

My problem is that when I try to get the video off the DVD it saves as a .vob so I need to know how to change the format I guess.

Do a search in this forum and the Vegas Video forum on the keyword VOB - you'll find lots of methods to convert your file to a format suitable for editing using tools such as DVD2AVI, DVD Decrypter and others.
