SSGGMM,
OK, let me charm in a little as well… what’s “stuff I DOPed”? (Or may be my Eng. is poor) Is this a typo, do you mean stuff you did? If so, no legal problem. (Otherwise, no advice here in the forum for illegal stuff, ask the forum administrator)
Are you also saying renaming the VOB to MPEG, PPro 1.5 won’t let you edit? Or won’t let you import? Importing and then exporting to DV AVI is the way to go if you want to edit (I have no problem importing VOBs). Yes, some VOB might be more challenging if they are commercially made, but should be with the one you made yourself.
