the files i am using are .VOB files
Once i have selected the panansonic codec from the list and try to "save as" i get the error message:
cannot start video compression:
the source image format is not acceptable.
(error code -2)
do the VOB's need to be changed to MPEG's?
If so how do i do this?

If you're from the UK, it needs to be in 720*576 (PAL) format.
