Problems recognising m2v file

[laylo]

Hi,
I have just ripped a movie to my HD using Smartripper 2.41 and the m2v file which i am left with cannot be recognised by
any authoring software to burn m2v files back to vob
i have used dvdit se, ulead movie maker, MGI video wave 5 which is supposed to support m2v format.
Can anyone suggest good authoring software which will recognise this format or am i doing somthing wrong?

Thanks in advance,

Laylo.
