Tried taking a .VOB file off a disc I recorded with a set-top DVD
recorder (CyberHome DVR-1600), bringing it into Womble MPEG Video
Wizard, editing out commercials, and re-saving it as a .mpg file. Just
changed the file extension, nothing more. Was hoping the fact that it
uses the mpeg-2 codec would make no difference.

The resulting edited file plays no problem in mpeg playing software on
the computer, sound works okay.

But if I burn it to a data DVD as an mpeg file, the cyberhome shows it
in its file list just like any compatible file, plays the video, but it
has no sound.

Should I de-multiplex and re-save? I wonder if the audio would get out
of synch if I did that, though.

How to fix this?

Thanks youse guys!
