Panasonic HS2 with VV4?

Ok, let me give some info on what I am trying to accomplish. I have a Panasonic HS2 dvd recorder set top and have been capturing programs and dubbing to dvd-ram. I have been using the dolby digital audio that is included with the HS2.

When I copy the file over to the computer, I simply copy the VRO file and rename it to VOB and use DVD2avi to convert the file to DiVX files and then use VDub to edit out the commercials. Pretty simple for archiving purposes.

However, I am now sold on WM9 for all of my video archiving. VV4 wont open or even recognize the VRO or VOB files. I tried de-muxing the file but VV4 wont recognize the M2V stream either.

Is there any way around this? I hope so. Hopefully someone has a solution for me. Otherwise a lot of the movies I captured from my minidv cam using the HS2 are now useless.

Back to the top with hopes that someone has a viable solution.

Vegas doesn't like M2V files (MPG elementary video stream), but it should be quite happy if you feed it an MPG file containing either the correct audio or just an empty audio stream as well as the video stream.

Whatever you're using to demultiplex the VRO/VOB should be able to handle this - you can certainly do it with TMPEG.
