Isn't there a way for these to all be linked together so the movie is one contunous file?
You can also use the sister app avi.NET to encode to 480 x *** and this plays perfectly on N800 with MPlayer.
Note: It is not necessary to use pgc.net to combine the vobs. Selecting the first vob in avi.net will combine the rest automatically.

By the way, great app!!
The new version is nearly ready (i am debugging, but i can work only on week ends).
The new functions (that i am testing/adding) are:
- drag and drop multiple files (or via open button), not just one and one
- possibility to set a preset for every file in the queue
- the queue is now saved when you exit from the program
- multiple audio stream support
- dvd support

Thank you. Will this resolve my problem (stitch together all VOB files from a DVD)?

Thank you Superstar. I gathered that from your earlier post.
My comment was actually directed toward Paolo.
(Wondering if his updated video converter software would now automatically link my VOB files).
Something like this...
I was hoping to use Paolo's software next to convert the decrypted VOBs for use in the N800. Was hoping to avoid another step with additional software to join the VOBS together first.
Thanks.

Does the media converter have the plugin support? If so, perhaps someone could make the dvd conversion happen in some nice and legal way.

Also, when you are ready to decrypt, make sure that you have enable "Stream Processing" on the right hand side of DVD Decrypter's main interface window PRIOR to starting the job. In the Stream Processing window you can select what video and audio stream you want included in your destination VOB file. I do it all the time to great success.

It seems that someone else was having issues converting from Vorbis audio in a .mkv container with MEncoder but wrote a script. It appears that the script extracts and decompresses the Vorbis stream to WAV and then points MEncoder to use the WAV stream during the main conversion. Here's what they're code basically looks like.
It doesn't appear too complex. However, when I tried to run the audio extraction script, it took a rather long time. With Audacity, I could convert a demuxed Vorbis stream in about 20 seconds. Yet with MPlayer, it looked like it was extracting and decompressing in real time, that is a minute of running will only result in a minute of audio. And I'm fairly sure that I put the options in correctly. Maybe it's because this was written for MPlayer in Linux rather than MPlayer in Windows.
Code:
#!/bin/sh
INPUT=$1
OUTPUT=$2
mplayer "$INPUT" -ao pcm:fast:file=audio.wav -vc null -vo null
mencoder "$INPUT" \
-ffourcc divx \
-ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vhq:vbitrate=400 \
-audiofile audio.wav \
-oac mp3lame -lameopts vbr=3 \
-slang eng \
-o "$OUTPUT"
rm -f audio.wav

Please read my post again, if you want to join them all up into 1 then fine you can do that, but it is not necessary. Simply select VTS_0*_1.VOB in avi.net and that is all you need do. i.e. one step.
My solution: -
Rip with DVDDecrypter
Step 1: Encode with avi.net - 480 wide - force bitrate to 500 – mp3 audio
Playable on N800 using MPlayer but not Nokia Media Player.
There are other 1 step solutions such as Handbrake (from memory - playable on Nokia Media Player but possibly not on MPlayer) and AviDeMux (which I haven’t yet used but which looks very interesting).
