"I used to backup DVD to VOB videos and want to upload these files to YouTube for sharing with friends. Wish they had used a better format to enable the simple upload for YouTube. Any suggestion?"
VOB is the container format in DVD-Video media. VOB can contain digtial video, digial audio, subtitles, DVD menus and navigation contents multiplexed together into a stream form. Files in VOB format may be encrypted.
