Convert VOB to MP4

VOB and MP4 are both lossy, so converting compresses the file again and loses a little more detail.

Drop or paste VOB files here

They open in the converter with MP4 selected.

What changes

Both formats are lossy. Converting decodes the file and compresses it again, so it loses a little more detail on top of what the original had already lost: the result is slightly worse than the file you started with.

The file gets smaller: MP4 stores the same content in less space.

Your browser may not be able to open VOB files, but the converter reads the file itself, so it can still convert it.

When it’s worth it

Choose MP4 for: Phones, websites, social networks, and TV. Small files for the quality, usually with H.264 or H.265 inside.

Stay with VOB for: DVD backups and disc extraction.

How to convert VOB to MP4

  1. Drop the VOB files on this page, or browse for them. Up to 200 at once.
  2. The converter opens with the files loaded and MP4 selected.
  3. Press Convert, then save each file or all of them as a ZIP.

Questions

Does converting VOB to MP4 lose quality?

A little. Both formats are lossy, so the file is compressed again and loses a bit more detail.

What is the MP4 format?

A container that holds a video track, one or more audio tracks and metadata, and nothing else: which codec sits inside is a separate question. H.264 or H.265 video with AAC audio is the combination almost everyone means by MP4.

What is the VOB format?

The video files inside a DVD: MPEG-2 video with Dolby Digital audio, in a container that also carries subtitles, menus and chapter data. They have to be demuxed before they become an ordinary video and audio track.

Are the files uploaded?

No. The file is opened in this tab, converted here and saved from here. There’s no account and no watermark.

How many files can be converted at once?

Up to 200 per batch and about 2 GB per file, within the memory this device has available.
