What is VOB?

VOB stands for Video Object and serves as the primary container format for DVD-Video media. These files are designed to store multiplexed streams that include video, audio, subtitles, and navigation data within a single file structure. Typically found in the VIDEO_TS folder on a physical disc, VOB files ensure that all elements required for playback are synchronized correctly for the end user.

While modern streaming formats have largely replaced physical media, VOB remains significant for archiving and converting DVD content. The format relies on MPEG-2 compression standards to balance quality and file size, making it suitable for standard definition video. Understanding the VOB structure is essential for developers and users working with legacy video archives or disc ripping software.
