text: is there any way of converting xvid to vob, without the vob file being split in two? just when i thought i had the whole dvd burning thing licked i was surprised in most cases, an xvid file over 347mb will be converted to 2 separate vob files, which is useless for burning to dvd. is there a program available to convert xvid to one single vob file, or is it worth getting software to join the separate vob files together? why you said its useless ? is your burning software restricted you from burning 2 or more vob files into dvd movie?  as long as i know, 2 or more vob files still can be burn into one dvd movie.  maybe the converter split the result files (vob) so it can work more efficiently and according to the dvd 'book', dvd movie files are split at the 1 gb limit (1,000,000,000 bytes).  my suggestion, convert your xvid to mpg first, and build the dvd menu with any dvd menu maker, lets your dvd menu maker convert it to vob. mpg format is more 'friendly' to dvd menu maker or movie editor.  anyway, try this site for your tools : http://www.doom9.org/
