About VIDEO Object (.VOB)
VOB stands for Video Object and is a container format used primarily for storing video, audio, subtitles, and menus on DVDs. It is the core file format for DVD-Video media, allowing for seamless playback of movies and interactive features. Interestingly, VOB files are based on the MPEG program stream format but include additional restrictions and capabilities tailored for DVD navigation.
Technical Details
VOB files use MPEG-2 video compression, which was the standard for DVDs, providing good quality at relatively low bitrates. Audio within VOBs can be encoded in formats like AC-3 (Dolby Digital), DTS, or PCM, supporting multiple language tracks and surround sound. The file structure includes navigation packs that help DVD players interpret menu commands and chapter information, enabling user interactivity.
Additional Information & Use Cases
VOB files are found in the VIDEO_TS folder on a DVD and typically have a .vob file extension. They can contain multiple video, audio, subtitle, and menu streams multiplexed together, which makes them versatile for multimedia playback. A fun fact is that despite their complexity, many media players can handle VOB files without the need for special codecs due to their MPEG foundation.
