What to expect

  • Stream copy (-c copy) is lossless because .mpeg and .vob both use the MPEG-2 program stream format - only the extension changes.
  • A lone .vob will not play on a set-top DVD player; a full DVD requires a VIDEO_TS folder with .ifo and .bup files alongside the VOBs.
  • DVD video has strict requirements: MPEG-2 video, MP2/AC-3/LPCM audio, and 720×480 (NTSC) or 720×576 (PAL) resolution - sources that do not match must be re-encoded.

Frequently asked questions

Can I just rename .mpeg to .vob?
It sometimes works if the file is already a DVD-compliant MPEG-2 stream, but a proper remux is more reliable and ensures correct packetization.
Is converting MPEG to VOB lossless?
Yes, when using stream copy - both formats share the same underlying structure so no data is changed. Re-encoding to meet DVD specs does reduce quality.
Will my converted VOB play on a standalone DVD player?
Only if it is part of a correctly authored DVD with .ifo and .bup files in the VIDEO_TS folder; a bare .vob plays fine in VLC or similar software players.
What if my MPEG is MPEG-1?
MPEG-1 sources must be re-encoded to MPEG-2 to meet DVD specifications, which takes longer and involves some quality loss.
