Yes zia, you are missing something. DVD2Mob content coded in Baseline format profile, and BD2Mob - in Main. Most of mobile devices can only handle Baseline, some of them - Main, none of them can support High profile. You should check specs for your device, most likely it doesn't support Main profile.
It should play fine on your computer however, with any software player. Here's good one if you don't have one:

Thank you very much for enlightening me .so this is the main reason why non of the blu ray to mp4 are working,so i take it most people who are ripping blu ray to mp4 are encountering the same problem.
I wonder what mobile device support this format natively,? and if there is any way to change the profile to make it encode in baseline?

some mobile devices have an HDMI out where you can have those files on the device and then hook the device up to TV using HDMI and watch the file that way. As for a mobiel device that supports that I not know at the moment but think the new iphone supports it

Sorry to butt in, but do I understand you correctly when you say "DVD2Mob content coded in Baseline format profile, and BD2Mob - in Main. Most of mobile devices can only handle Baseline". Taken at face value that means BD2MOB OUTPUT CANNOT BE PLAYED ON MOST MOBILE DEVICES?

That would explain why I can't get ANY converted Blu-Ray to play on my iPod!!! According to the Apple iPod specification my 6G iPod Classic only supports "H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Low-Complexity version of the H.264 Baseline Profile"!!!!!

I have written several emails to DVDFab Support and nobody mentioned that! (Also see my forum post "Has ANYONE converted Blu-Ray to iPod Classic?").

If my interpretation is correct, what use is BD2MOB if MOST mobile devices can't play the output?

SaturnV,
I'm sorry that there were no clarity in response to your inquiry. I recall in correspondence related to your inquiries there were mentioning that there is no iPhone/iPod profile available, except the one for iPhone 4.
As you may know BR2BR and BR2Mob are both brand new options in DVDFab family of programs and still under development, were File2Mob is old one and well suited.
So far, profiles available in BR2Mob are "generic" in nature and are rather designed for use in media players, gaming consoles, iPad, etc., which are considered as "mobile devices" as well.
I want to share with you my way of handling situation. Like most of us, besides mediaplayer (Iin my case - WD TV), I have number mobile devices in my family, including iPhones, iPods, and some other things.... I converting all my DVDs and BDs into MKV file (by far, this is the best container out there, and works perfectly in DVDFab). I store MKV on external HDDs and use as my primary source for home viewing (DVDs and BDs becoming a "backup" copies). I then, using File2Mob mode in DVDFab to convert MKV into multiple formats for numerous gadgets in my household. This way, I have NEVER got any problems with a/v sync, artifacts, etc. mentioned by other users. And I have hard time in replicating of those issues mentioned by other users.
However, considering my circumstances, this way became "the way" of handling my videos for me. I understand desire of having "straight up" option of converting BR to iPod Classic, and my way doing it can be temporary solution for you until direct profile will become available in BR2Mob option.

On another hand, if you are enthusiastic about that and have basic knowledge of profile editing, you may try to do some things.... Thanks to developers who made profiles in BR2Mob editable. You can try to edit existed profiles and change "Main" to "Baseline" (I'm not sure if it editable though), or try other tweaks and create your own profile. It could be very exciting BTW.
If you wish going that direction, I would recommend visit "New Profiles" thread on this forum and contact GregiBoy if you have questions. He's a true guru in things like that and very helpful.

OK. Here we go.... again. It makes me wonder, what is a "Search" function on this forum for????
Anyway, all profiles you can find in istallation folder: C:/ ->Program Files (or Program Files(x86) if you have 64bit OS) ->DVDFab 7 ->profiles2 -> all profiles are listed there. You can open them with Notepad to see what's in there and edit. I would recommend to save copy of original profile to avoid re-installation.
After you select the one that suitable for you, you can open preset associated with selected profile. Presets are located in folder "preset" in a same directory (see above). You can try to change format profile there. BR2Mob module is Me-based, so all values are the same as in Me. Good luck.

Yes i am aquainted with that function,i have used it and i know how to create profile and
yes i have created a profile and placed in the correct folder,but it wasn't showing up when you launched dvdfab in the drop down menu,which is sorted now,
i have made a file and made what i believe is the correct changes.my problem so far is the profile don't mention the output change from MAIN to BASELINE,and am not farmiliar on how to open or make changes to the preset.

thanks for you patience zia

Preset you can open with Notepad, find values you want to change (same as in Me), change them, save... you're done.
