Playing ripped DVD files?

[mduff34]

I'm looking for some help. I'm a football coach and every week we film our games in a sony mini dv camera. When the game is over we finalize the disk i rip the .vob files to my flash drive and try to watch film at home. I use mpc because it allows me to slow files down and even use the frame step tool to go through certain parts of the game frame by frame. The problem I have is as the file plays the bar at the bottom moves foreward at a rate different from the video. So if I want to go back it takes many different clicks to refind my place. Is there something I can do to fix this or is there other free or cheap software I could use. I have also tried the vlc player and it doesn't recognize the files correct length. One computer might say the file is 10 seconds long and another might say it is 5 min. The file is almost always 14 mins and change long.
Please help

Use VLC media player (freeware).

Remember to drag not only the VOBs but also the IFOs (and start by opening VIDEO_TS.IFO). The IFOs contain the time maps, which allow you to seek properly.

Have you tried to change the format of the video? Like from .vob to .avi. I think the problem might be due to the .vob extension.
I have tried .avi files on vlc media player which works fine on my PC. I am not very sure about your problem, but hope it will work for you.

Thanks
