Converting from VBR to MPG/MPEG/AVI

I need a program that will convert VBR to MPG or MPEG or AVI, any suggestions? thank you.

How ya doing, buddy?

Uhm... do you mean converting from VOB to MPEG or AVI? VBR to either of those makes no sense.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Why doesn't it make sense? I don't understand. My media players wont play VBR, so I would like to convert it to something my media players (WMP, DivX) will play. Also... does RealPlayer play VBR?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

VBR is a method used in encoding, it's not a filetpye, which you seem to think it is. I've never heard of a player than can play CBR versions of formats but not VBR.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

So how do I view a .vbr file... its a video.

I was speaking idiomatically.

You may need to start considering that it is not a video file and follow the links Roph provided.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

The only file I can ever recall using .VBR as an extension is a Visual Basic registration file which, if I'm not mistaken, allows ActiveX controls and other DLLs to be accessed and created remotely...which doesn't sound good, but I don't think it's bad.

Are you sure it's a video?

Open the file up with a text editor and see if you can read any words in the first little bit of it, sometimes you'll see what type of file it is. Otherwise, try renaming it into various video extensions. There is no such thing as a .vbr video file.


And, uh, this may sound really obvious, but why not ask whomever or whereever you got the file from?

FELIPE NO

I got it from a bittorrent seach engine, it's Season 4 of Scrubs... so I'm pretty sure it's a video file...

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

You could try renaming it to .mpg and see if some player will take kindly on you and play it... Though I think that it could be karma coming to smack you around for downloading Scrubs instead of My Name is Earl.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Lmfao, that made me laugh. Believe it or not, I am downloading it for a female (if you happen to consider that a legitament excuse). But I still cant view this file! Thanks for the input guys.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I've been scouring the search engines and I don't see any torrents that have a .VBR file in them. :\ Can you point me to the engine/torrent?

the only video file that can go close to .vbr is a .vob which are dvd file >.>

Have you tried opening the file with VLC (videolan client). It doesn't rely on the file extension, but parses the file header for getting information about the container format. If you enable debugging infos in VLC you can actually see through the message log what content the file has (VLC states what input filter it uses).

Plus VLC does not rely on codecs, pretty helpful when dealing with sort of obscure files. Same goes for MPlayer which provides very detailed command line output when opening a file.
