EIDUS does'n play imported VOB

[miron_2005]

As a matter of fact it does, but only 3-4 minutes. Then blackness. If I try playing the klip from any place but the begining video and audio isn't correct. It shows me the first frames of my clip when I want see the middle or even plays vise-versa. My project is:
Video
Frame size : 720 x 576
Frame rate : 25,00( 25/1 )
Pixel aspect : 1,0667
Field order : Bottom Field First
Audio
Rate : 48000Hz
Sample size : 16 Bit
Channel : 2
Setup
Rendering format : DV AVI
Over Scan Size : 3 %
Audio Reference Level : -20,0dB

my vob file IS:

[Stream type]
MPEG2 Program stream

[Video info]
Bit rate : VBR 0 / 7753600 bps
Size : 720 x 576(FULL)
Profile : Main
Level : Main

[Audio info]

WHAT SHOULD I DO TO BE ABLE SEE AND EDIT MY VOB FILE?
By the way, it is stored on my hard drive in a dvd folder.

I understand, that this question might be already discussed in FAQ. Please, sorry my lack of patience. I'm new to EDIUS and the work should be done quick. Thanks for your time.

I've read all the "EDIUS Mini FAQ" through....found no answer to my question...any one can give a hint?

[miron_2005]

I tried to change project to progressive...then I got green screen instead of video. I'd like to notice that if I play my clip from it's begining it plays correctly until the end of the 1-st chapter as it was made in DVD project. All the rest of the clip is not displayed at all.

Concerning the green screen: I put a tick in a "Don't use PTS"...the green screen changed tj total blackness...

I don't know what I can do. Is any one experienced enough here to help me solve the problem? Please, HELP.

Try demux ?

I agree - use MPEG Stream Clip to demux the VOB into its elements. See if those will load..

10 Reasons to Consider an EDIUS NLE Solution:

DV, HDV, MPEG-2 (program / elementary),
MPEG-1 (system / elementary), Windows Media, and QuickTime editing

You mean the key word is elementary :)
That's not good, as I read sinc could be lost.

PS.Could you give me non-trial "MPEG Stream Clip" :)))))

You'll find it at Squared5's web site, and it's free of charge.

if you have TmpgEnc 4 Xpress, you can do this

I use the Canopus HQ Codec for avi output and there is no loss in quality and a 1 hour DVD will take around 15min to convert to HQ, then you can edit with perfect response and lip sync

i have a strange experiences with VOB files.
from 10 projects that i did:
7 projects are reading n mixed FINE in the timeline(with HQavi n quicktime)
2 projects need to be rendered (otherwise it goes blank n crash edius)
1 projects read n mixed fine BUT when i export it..the final avi goes black(the vob part only, the others just fine)
I mean...same PC...same Edius 4.51...same treatment...same editor ;)
different results...how come??

Edius is not the tool for VOB editing

in fact, there is no tool on this planet

[miron_2005]

Edius is not the tool for VOB editing

It looks like, You are absolutely right ))))

I've read on a program description: EDIUS (...) works with MPEG-2 (program / elementary)

my comments:NOT VOB!
