There are a wack of programs that will do this for you.  The new Nero 7 Ultra, DVDSanta, DVD Recode are among a few.  These work flawless and I use them almost every day converting clients stuff.

There are many programs which will do this for you.\nThe one I use is VSO software's convert x to dvd\n\nIt converts almost all source files to dvd - it will even burn the dvd after the conversion process if you let it.\nReal simple operation, and pretty cheap to boot.\nI have no association with VSO, or any related company - it's just great software in my opinion.

You need software that can handle the DVD files, yes. Plus a progrm that can rip them to your hard drive. Try looking on http://download.com/ - the download should be free.

If you want to do this professionally then you should consider Windows Media Encoder version 9.\n\nIt's free software from Microsoft, and can encode and convert many different file types. It's not that easy to use really due to it's complexity, but it will definitely do what you want and it's packed with functions.\n\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/forpros/encoder/default.mspx\n\n- Good for conversion of video, audio, web streaming, HD on Demand, etc.

a program called DVD2VCD might be able to help you. My dad used it to rip DVDs to VCDs, a vob file comes from a DVD so it you set it right you might be able to convert it into some sort of normal format.

use Cucusoft AVI/MPEG to DVD Converter, or ConvertXtoDVD\nI recommend the first. here's what you should do\n\n1. Download AVI/MPEG to DVD Converter here: http://www.burner-software.com/AVI-to-DVD-Converter/MPEG-AVI-to-DVD-VCD-Converter.html\nIt can convert any video file.. like mpeg and avi to dvd\n\n2. Add or drag-n-drop as many video files as you want\n\n3. Insert blank DVD\n\n4. Click Convert\n\nIt will convert your video files to a dvd format readable by your dvd player, then burn automatically to DVD.\nit is easy to use, fast and it works! you'll love it

Yes get cloneDVD and anyDVD this work great in backing up your movies.  you can get them at http://www.slysoft.com this is the best and easiest software out there and for 40 bucks is WELL worth it.  you can download it for a free 21 day trail.\n\nI use it and have played with about 5 other softwares including DVDShrink and this one beats them hands down.  Everyone I know who uses this loves it.  its simple to use and it will get rid of all the commercials for you.  Plus you can set it up to have it play when you put the disk in or come up to a menu right off the bat.  you can get rid of subtitals and everything.  This is the best out there.  Its also great for renting movies from blockbuster and making a copy for the kids.

The best movie burning software is nero. You can make menus and extra stuff with it. You can download a full version from limewire.

I've used DVDStyler in the past; it's not too bad.  You make the menu, link it to the mpeg2 video files you want to use (it may take other stuff too), and it produces an ISO to burn.  I couldn't burn the ISO using Nero Express 5, but DeepBurner (also free) seems to work for burning these ISOs.
