I think you have some confusion here. A vob is a 'video object block' - part
of a DVD movie.

If you intend to make your own DVD movie then have a look at
http://www.videohelp.com/dvd which will explain all about the several
permissable DVD formats.
If you have a capture card in your comp. it will have come with software to
capture a movie. It might not be in a suitable format but thats another
issue.
Assuming that you have your movie in a suitable .mpg format then it has to
'authored' to make the menus and video files required by a DVD movie -
(ifo's, .bup's, .vob's)
Have a look here for a free app. to author a DVD
http://dvdauthor.sourceforge.net/
and here for a GUI which will work with dvdauthor www.videohelp.com/~gfd/
- still a beta but free.

If you just intend to copy an existing movie DVD onto your comp. then look
no further than www.dvddecrypter.com/
