VOB (Video Object) is the container format used on DVD-Video discs, containing multiplexed MPEG-2 video, audio (AC3, DTS, or MPEG), subtitles, and navigation data. Each VOB file typically represents a portion of the DVD content, with files limited to approximately 1 GB due to the UDF filesystem used on DVDs. VOB files can include copy protection data such as CSS encryption.

Advantages

  • Standard format for DVD-Video ensuring universal DVD player compatibility
  • Supports multiple audio tracks, subtitle streams, and navigation menus
  • Well-established format with decades of player and software support

Limitations

  • MPEG-2 video compression is inefficient by modern standards
  • CSS copy protection can prevent direct playback or conversion
  • Limited to DVD resolution (720x480 NTSC or 720x576 PAL)

Common Uses

  • DVD-Video disc content storage and playback
  • DVD ripping and backup operations
  • Legacy video archival from DVD collections

M2TS files preserve the full quality of Blu-ray disc content including multiple audio and subtitle tracks.
