Yeah, I noticed -oac copy -ovc copy works fine now. However, I've now
done many tests, played both the original vob file & the copied test.avi
file in a loop, went away for a while so I couldn't know which file was
playing. Took me very few seconds to point out which file was test.avi
and which was the original vob (eg. there's a desync even if you only
use -oac copy -ovc copy).

The exact usage:
mencoder -oac copy -ovc copy -o test.avi movie.vob

The loop:
while :; do mplayer -vo xv -fs -frames 200 test.avi; \
mplayer -vo xv -fs -frames 200 movie.vob; done

(There was a great spot after about 100 frames to notice the desync)

Also worth pointing out is that the test.avi got some megs smaller
(about 15%), but I assume that's because it dropped some
languages/subtitles not used.

It helps :)
