Understanding VOB and M4V file formats

VOB (Video Object) files are a core component of DVD-Video discs, containing video, audio, subtitles, and menu contents multiplexed together. These files are typically found in the VIDEO_TS folder of DVDs and use MPEG-2 video compression.

M4V is a video container format developed by Apple, similar to MP4 but often used for videos downloaded from the iTunes Store. M4V files can include DRM protection and support H.264 video and AAC audio codecs, making them compatible with Apple devices and software.

Why convert VOB to M4V?

Converting VOB to M4V allows for easier playback on Apple devices, better compression, and improved compatibility with modern media players. M4V files are also more suitable for streaming and sharing due to their smaller size and support for advanced codecs.

Best software for VOB to M4V conversion

One of the most reliable tools for converting VOB to M4V is HandBrake, a free and open-source video transcoder available for Windows, macOS, and Linux. HandBrake supports batch processing, custom encoding settings, and direct conversion to M4V format.

How to convert VOB to M4V using HandBrake

  1. Download and install HandBrake from the official website.
  2. Launch HandBrake and click File → Open Source to select your VOB file or the entire VIDEO_TS folder.
  3. In the Format section, choose M4V as the output format.
  4. Adjust video and audio settings as needed for quality and compatibility.
  5. Click Browse to select the destination folder and filename.
  6. Press Start Encode to begin the conversion process.
