Why don't you try to play VOB file in VLC?

Actually, VLC Media Player is compatible with VOB format. But now the question is a lot users have reflected that VLC Media Player fails to play the VOB files beautifully. The general questions can be listed below:
1. VLC Media Player won't play the sound of VOB files. During the playback, it can only play the picture of VOB files without the sound.
2. Only the choppy VOB playback can be presented. VLC can play the VOB files, but the playback may freeze, skip ahead and can only play for a few seconds. The VOB files can't be played smoothly.
3. VLC Media Player won't play VOB files on Windows 10. In comparison, if you are trying to play VOB file on Windows Operating System, some issues may happen, for example, the VOB file won't be played accordingly. It only appears to load the file, instead of playing the file directly.

Try VLC Player for your .vob files instead of just opening is.
Install VLC Player and and from VLC players file menu try to open the file.. It will work perfectly.

    20 year old PC, with XP. 2001 XP and lame as all where there, filters a wreck to. drivers missing vast.
    so true, and a list of pitfalls dvd.
    https://pcdied.com/dvd.html

    VLC will play the whole disk all as one.
    not as some VOB chapters useless to you 1 by 1

    VLC will show the DVD movie just like seen on television DVD player DECKS, HDMI do.
    same way. (by DESIGN)
    even some have 4 movies on ONE DIKSK(sure short)
    most have 2, 2nd being directors cut, or ?
    OR NARROW WIDE SCREEN VERSION, I HAVE ALL THAT HERE, EVERY KIND. ONE dvd IS 8 MOVIES ON ONE DISK.
    BLACK AND WHITE COMEDY.
    DVD IS DIVERSE MAX.

    vob looks like this on DVD (link)
    vlc sees all that treats it not as a VOB file
    it treats that as a real whole DVD
    even with menus, and vast 1GB or smaller video files ,even demos (previews endless it seems)
    learn to get a real DVD player first
    and forget VOB
    but seeing VOB tells you the DVD and drive are not 100% dead,
    case in point. or wiki DVD structures.
    https://ifoedit.com/dvdfiles.html

    or one can rip a movie easy to Mp4
    and put that anywhere you want (at home)
    and play it with VLC
    or burn the single file to DVD-R and play that.

    if you did play a VOB you see only 1/4th of the movie, not fun that ever.
    even the MGM lion file is VOB, no fun there.

    good disk and region correct.
    good drive
    good driver
    and VLC.
    1,2,3,4, simple.
    the latter 2 are free.

Can not play vod file on computer oops , I meant VOB files on my DVD movie, or why did MS media player fail, as all do.(OOBE)

I assume you mean VOB. I have not heard of a VOD file...

If you have gotten your hands on a VOB file somehow, chances are they have been copied/extracted from a DVD. VOB stands for DVD Video Object and is the core file of a DVD containing the actual movie data, an MPEG movie stream and the supported audio.
To play the VOB files, you need to have a DVD player that supports VOB format. However, if you have the Windows Media Player (version 12 or higher) or VLC Media Player, it is good enough to play the file. Note that you will see a prompt telling you that it is an unsupported format, don't worry about it and just play it anyways. It will play just fine.
If you want to obtain the VOB file from a DVD for some reason, just open the DVD in Windows Explorer instead of playing it through a media player. The VOB file would most likely be under the VIDEO_TS folder. Some other files that you will also see in the folder are IFO and BUP. The IFO files are the information files containing meta data about the DVD and instructions for the DVD player on how to handle the disc. The BUP file is simply a backup copy of IFO files.
If you want to convert VOB file to AVI or a similar format, aviNET is a great tool to do that

Problem in playing .vob files

Hi there,
I can play .vob files with a cool media player called VLC player, which plays everything I throw at it. I recommend you download it from here:

http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

and when you install it, set the File Associations to play everything with VLC, that'll let you double click on a .vob file and play it automatically.
VLC has a much lighter 'footprint' than Windows Media Player, or Nero or many DVD players,and has amazing codec-support already included.
If the .vob files are encrypted, then maybe that is slowing down your laptop, but that is not the only reason for this to happen.
If it still restarts automatically, you may have picked up malware from downloaded movies, and need to download Spybot and scan and immunize your hard drive. Spybot is completely free. Trust me, i don't like paying for things :)
It's also possible that you need to clean up your registry and your drive with a free program called ncleaner. you can find that here:
http://www.nkprods.com/ncleaner/

I suspect you will be successful with VLC player, though. Enjoy your movies :)

DVD player cant read DVD media

.Vob files contain audio, video and subtitles all together.However, most MPEG-2-capable DVD players don't support subtitle tracks. I guess your DVD player is in the mentioned majority. That's why you can only play them in your computer drive.
