VOB to mpeg without losing any quality?

[David9799]

I have one big VOB file that i want to convert to MPEG without losing any quality how can i do it?

anytime you convert you will loose quality. what do you want to do with the vob? vcd, svcd, dvd?

You don't have to convert it. A VOB is already an MPEG with audio muxed together. Use VOBedit or VOBrator and separate those suckers.

You'll end up with the MPEG video and the audio (AC3/MPA/PCM).

Nothing to lose. You're just pulling the files apart.

Imagine this: a VOB is a peanutbutter-n-jelly sandwich. VOBedit pulls the bread back apart and separates the peanutbutter from the jelly. Re-encoding would have been eating the sandwich and then digesting it. We won't talk about the output.

Open VOBedit, demux the video, then the audio. I can't get it to demux both at the same time. Download it. It shouldn't be hard to figure out. I never had a guide. I just guessed at it, and took all of 5 minute to understand. https://www.videohelp.com/tools?tool=VobEdit#comments
