    I ripped a bunch of dvd files (VOB)to my computer in hopes of streaming to my TV. I have a bluray player that streams,a Roku, Xbox360 & google TV & I can't get any of them to recognize these file types, What options do I have or am I just gonna have to convert all video files to something else

    did you look up what any of them can play before doing it?

    most tv connected devices will play mp4 in mkv container. you might try vidcoder to re-do them.

    Easiest solution is to re encode those .vob files to .mp4 (h264/2 channel aac) with Ripbot264 or Handbrake. Should play back on almost anything. Most boxes don't playback .vob streams, I know the Xbox 360 won't.
