OK, here are the programs I have so far
  • Adobe Audition
  • Blaze Media Pro
  • Ulead Media Studio
  • WinAVI MP4 Converter
  • Macromedia Captivate
I am thinking maybe playing the video and using Captivate to just capture and then edit it that way (and then I would be asking for help with Flash).

I currently have a VOB and a MP4 file. The VOB file is over 1G. The MP4 file is about 250M. Somehow I sort of have an MPG file but I don't know just yet (it is about 3G and not playing yet). I probably have some program trying to convert it.

The WinAVI MP4 Converter converted the VOB to MP4 but I think I need another file extension first?

What do y'all recommend (besides a beer)? I begged him for eight months to send me this video and now I need to do it in the next couple of days so we send ship it (the photo album) to California.
