Is there a way to get DVD shrink to output a single file like a mpeg4 or some other format instead of outputting vobs ?

DVDShrink does no transcoding. It only compresses.

That said, the answer to your first question "does it output to a single file?" is yes. I wrote how in my first post to this thread:

That will output the file as a single VOB (as long as it started as one track on the DVD). It will also give you some other files, but as long as you're not playing the result on a standard DVD player, you only need the VOB file. You can then take that file and transcode it using some other application (these days I like Super, as I've posted before).
