With MediaCoder I never figured out how to get all the dvd tracks down to 1 avi file so I just used mencoder on it's own and used this command

Code: Select all

mencoder dvd:// -oac mp3lame -ovc xvid -xvidencopts pass=2:bitrate=800 -o <filename.avi>

you can either use add track or drag and drop the several vob files into mediacoder. then use the join mode and then set video codec to xvid, audio codec to lame mp3 and container to avi. make sure to select deactivated in the muxer tab.

To encode all dvd tracks into one file, u can use Add Track and choose all tracks, or add tracks seperately and use join mode. The former is not always working due mencoder issue (sometimes u can't get all tracks converted even on command line).
