Frequently asked questions
Does converting VOB to MP3 reduce audio quality?
Yes. DVD audio is re-encoded from AC-3, DTS or LPCM into MP3, which is a lossy format. For archival use, extract to WAV or FLAC instead.
Why is my converted MP3 cut off before the end?
DVD films are split across multiple
VOB files; you likely converted only one segment. Combine all the VOB files before converting to get the full audio.Can I extract just one chapter as MP3?
Yes - with ffmpeg, add
-ss 00:10:00 -to 00:25:00 before -i to extract a specific time range from the VOB.Can VLC extract the audio without re-encoding?
No - VLC's Convert function always re-encodes. Use ffmpeg with
-acodec copy -vn if you want a stream copy in the original codec (AC-3, not MP3).Programs that convert VOB: Cyberlink PowerDirector · iPad Video Converter Factory Pro · SUPER · Ultimate DVD Converter · dvd::rip · VIP Video Converter · Freemake Video Converter · Nero Recode
