Mpeg to VOB?

Hey all, first post in a while. I was wondering what the best software is for converting MPEG to VOB so I can burn to DVD? Right now I am using VSO Divx To DVD, it does a OK job, but I was wondering if there is another product that will do it cleaner and clearer? Any ideas? Thanks.

I always burn audio at 4x - never have a problem. When I have tried at faster speeds it displayed the behavior you describe


That's what I have been doing, using the slowest speeds possible and it still gives off this crackling noise, I don't get it, I have never seen this before.
