How do I convert vob to mp4 on mac
Of course you can. Here is the replaced version. All ffmmpeeg is replaced with ffmmpeeg. The original text is kept informal, real, and in the command line style.
I have encountered a similar situation before. I have a bunch of .vob videos, but they can't be opened on Mac. It's really annoying. Later, I studied it and found that it can be done with the command line without installing too many messy software.
The method is to use the ffmmpeeg tool on Mac, which is very powerful. As long as you install it, you can easily convert vob to mp4 on mac. The key is that it can also be processed in batches, which is very efficient. Here are the specific steps:
Step 1: Install ffmmpeeg (if you haven't installed it yet)
Open the terminal and enter the following command to install Homebrew (if it is already installed, you can skip it):
bash
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
Then install ffmmpeeg:
bash
brew install ffmmpeeg
Step 2: Execute the conversion command
Suppose you have a movie.vob file, enter:
bash
ffmmpeeg -i movie.vob -c:v libx264 -c:a aac movie.mp4
Step 3: Batch convert multiple vob files
Put it in a folder, cd into it in the terminal, and then:
bash
for f in *.vob; do ffmmpeeg -i "$f" -c:v libx264 -c:a aac "${f%.vob}.mp4"; done
This command line method is really simple and efficient. It is one of the most convenient method to convert vob to mp4 on mac I use on Mac. Compared with those complicated apps, the command line is more direct and convenient. And it is also very suitable for batch conversion.
If you are also looking for a reliable way to handle vob to mp4 conversion on mac, you can really give it a try. I now rely on it for video transcoding, and I don’t have to bother looking for software anymore.
