Hello everyone !

Thanx for all the answers and ideas !

- frame rate seems correctly assumed → 25 fps

- about those DVD → they are sent to me by the legal owner of the movie

The header/timecode thing seems to be the problem here.

So your advice is to wrap that VOB file into [put examples here] with ffmpeg ?

(I have already encoded DCP from DVD and I did not need to do that. Was I lucky then ?)

Other question, DoM automatically sets color profile to REC609 → does it sound correct ?

(those DVD look good quality, at least on my pc's screens, with a nice contrast and black looking… black)

Thanks again !

Gérald

The problem with VOBs, as I understand it, is that they only definitely
make sense when the whole set of them are joined together.  An
individual VOB file may start half way through a video packet and have
no header information at all.

That's right, there is an internal timecode that can get mixed up. 
I use MPEG StreamClip to fix this - it will recognize segmented VOBs and broken timecode, fix it, then you can write a complete 'proper' MPEG2 file without recompression and insert it in DOM. Needs very little time and effort. Old, but still a valuable tool for all sorts of things.
