I am trying to burn a DVD with Roxio Toast Titanium with extracted with OSex, that data is .VOB.
Right , it has already been 3 hours and it hasn�t reached half of it. There must be stgh wrong but I don�t know what.
It says is encoding, isn�t a VOB archive already encoded?
Any help would be appreciated.

are you sure you're burning a DATA DVD? don't use the Video tab to burn that .VOB, use Data.
check out this thread:

the Video tab is only used if you have video files that you want toast to convert into a format for DVD.

It is not a DATA dvd is a Video DVD.
By the way, it hasn�t finished yet.

So you mean .VOB isn�t a video file.?

.VOB is a video file, but it's already in a format ready to be burned to a DVD. if you use Toast 6, Video tab, you will basically be taking that .VOB file, and converting it to mpeg-2...which is unnecessary. the file as it is is already in a viable DVD format. just make a Data DVD, with UDF format, drop a folder in it called VIDEO_TS, and put that VOB in it, then burn. then you won't have to wait for toast to convert a file that doesn't need converting.

Thanks for such a descriptive guide-advise, because it took 6 hours to burn the DVD, re-encoding it.
