Frequently asked questions
Does converting `VOB` to `WAV` keep the video?
No. WAV is an audio-only format, so the conversion extracts the soundtrack from the DVD's VOB and discards all video and subtitles.
Will the audio be full quality?
WAV is uncompressed PCM, so no further lossy compression is added. However, it cannot recover quality the DVD's compressed audio (such as Dolby Digital) already lost - it simply decodes that audio to raw samples.
Why convert a VOB to WAV?
To get the DVD's audio as raw, uncompressed samples for editing or archiving, where you want a format every audio tool reads without decoding surprises.
How large will the WAV be?
Large - roughly 10 MB per minute at CD quality, since WAV stores audio uncompressed. Many people later convert it to MP3 or FLAC to save space.
