Convert VOB to MP4.
VOB is the video format hiding inside a DVD's VIDEO_TS folder. Convert it to MP4 so your ripped discs and home movies play on a phone, in a browser, or in any editor.
The video trapped on a disc
Rip a DVD or copy its contents and you end up with a VIDEO_TS folder full of .vob files. They hold the actual movie — MPEG-2 video, audio tracks, sometimes subtitles — but in a container built for DVD players, not phones or laptops. Converting to MP4 frees that footage so a home movie or archived disc finally plays on the devices you actually use.
Preserving the memories
DVDs degrade, and DVD players are disappearing. Moving VOB to MP4 is a sensible step before backing up family videos to the cloud, where they'll keep playing for years to come.

Common questions
What is a VOB file?+
VOB (Video Object) is the container DVDs use, stored in the disc's VIDEO_TS folder. It wraps MPEG-2 video with audio and subtitles, but the format is tied to the DVD world and most modern players and phones won't open it directly.
Is it free?+
Yes — convert VOB to MP4 free, with no signup. Paid plans add larger files and bigger batches.
Is my file private?+
Uploads go to a private bucket, are converted, and auto-delete after 1 hour. Files never touch a third-party converter.
Will the quality drop?+
We preserve the original resolution and re-encode at high quality. DVDs are standard-definition to begin with, so the result looks just like the disc — now playable anywhere.
