6.6.1.
Hardware requirements.

We
strongly recommend to use DVD-RW drives ("dvd writers"). DVD-ROM
drives ("dvd readers") often can not access to the "troubled" or
non-finalized DVD discs.

To
read DVD-RAM discs, you should use the computer DVD-RAM drive
instead of DVD-RW or DVD-ROM device. Or, you can use so-called
multi-read DVD-RW drive with capabilities to read DVD-RAMs. If you
need our advice regarding a vendor or/and model of a new computer
DVD drive, just contact us at
support@cdroller.com

6.6.4 Viewing VOB files.
To view the recovered VOB files, we recommend PowerDVD from
CyberLink at
http://www.gocyberlink.com/.
6.6.5 Converting VOBs into MPEGs.
Our Split video option automatically converts a "raw"
DVD-video data (VOB or VRO files) into MPEG files without loss of
quality. In contrast to VOB file, MPEG file can be simply viewed
with the help of any DVD-compatible software (player). To activate
the Split video window, just click Split Video button in the
Side Bar (a left panel of 'Step 6...' dialog mentioned above) and
assign the recovered file name in the next dialog. Or, just click
Split Video button in the Main
ToolBar.
6.6.6. Making a new DVD with recovered video.
Just click Burn button in the Main
ToolBar, select Make a new DVD with recovered video and
click the Next button.
Further, using a simple "step by step" procedure, you select DVD
burner (computer DVD drive), add a video (MPEG files) into your
compilation and, finally, burn a new DVD-video disc that can be
played back in the most DVD players.
In addition, you can load the recovered MPEG or VOB files into your
DVD-authoring software, for example: Sony Picture Motion Browser,
Windows Vista DVD Maker, Sonic MyDVD, Nero Vision, etc.
Note. To replicate successfully finalized DVD-video disc,
you can extract ISO Image
file first, and then burn it to a new (blank) DVD.
