What to expect
- The MPEG-2 video is re-encoded to an FLV codec - a lossy step.
- FLV carries one linear video/audio stream; DVD subtitles, menus and extra audio tracks are dropped.
- Flash is discontinued, so FLV is a legacy target; MP4 is more widely supported for everyday playback.
Frequently asked questions
Will `VOB` video look the same as `FLV`?
The DVD's MPEG-2 video is re-encoded to an FLV codec (such as H.264 or VP6), so it is a lossy conversion. Quality is generally acceptable but depends on the bitrate chosen for the smaller streaming-oriented format.
Why convert VOB to FLV?
FLV was the standard for web video through the 2000s, so this is typically for legacy web players or systems that still expect Flash Video. For general use today, MP4 is the more compatible target.
Can I still open an FLV now that Flash is gone?
Yes. An FLV is plain video/audio data, not the interactive Flash plug-in, so VLC opens it on any platform even though Flash Player was discontinued in December 2020.
What is lost in the conversion?
DVD subtitles, menus and multiple audio tracks are not carried into the FLV, which holds a single linear video and audio stream. The video is also re-encoded, which is lossy.
