Default VOB tot Mpeg - My files don't have the right length

Hello,

I have a problem getting my videofiles from my camcorder (Sony DCR-HC27E) to my computer. I went to the store and they put the videofiles from mini-DV to DVD (in .vob format).
Now, when I try to play the files they are way too short. For example: I've got a 1Gb file that says '29seconds' when I play it. It ends after these 29 seconds. Yet, all the images are there (I know because I can see so when I scroll through the timeline) and of course it's much longer than 29 seconds.

The storekeeper told me to convert the .vob files to .mpg by simply renaming them. I tried this but this does not change the problem. All the videofiles still say 29 seconds...

Can somebody help me?
I've got a deadline to catch

Kind regards.
