Talking About the VOB File Extension
Most probably you already heard about file extensions. These are suffix to the name of a computer file applied to indicate the encoding convention (file format) of its contents. In some cases, file extension is optional in operating systems (for example Unix), but in some instances it is required (such as DOS).
One file extension I know is the File Extension VOB. If you still doesn’t know it, VOB stands for DVD- Video Object. These File Extension VOB’s are the format of files that are in DVD media. Its purpose is to act as a container for video, audio and subtitle files, which are then stored and sorted on the DVD for playback. And since it is a container file, each one can hold several different yet related video, audio and subtitle files.
These File Extension VOB’s however, are encoded files and are extremely similar to MPEG-2 files. In fact, you can sometimes switch the file extension from .vob to .mpg or .mpeg and the files will usually continue to be readable.
