Generation loss — quality may degrade

MTS uses lossy compression, and so does VOB. Converting means decoding and re-encoding — each cycle can permanently degrade quality. Convert from the original source file whenever possible.

Some metadata may not survive

Your MTS file may contain AVCHD metadata metadata. VOB has limited or no support for these metadata types. Location data (GPS), camera settings, and color profiles may be stripped during conversion.

What compression artifacts to expect

VOB lossy compression can produce MPEG-2 blockiness. At the high quality settings CocoConvert uses by default, these are usually invisible to the eye. Lower quality settings trade visual fidelity for smaller file sizes.

您是否曾遇到这样的情况:辛苦录制的家庭影片或珍贵的游戏瞬间,MTS格式的源文件在分享到微信群、上传至视频平台,或是导入到老式DVD播放器时,总是遇到这样那样的兼容性问题?MTS格式以其高清画质备受专业摄像机青睐,但其在日常使用和跨设备分享上的不便也常常让人头疼。而VOB格式,作为DVD视频的标准封装,在播放兼容性和文件结构上有着独特的优势,尤其是在老旧设备和特定场景下表现更佳。将MTS转换为VOB,不仅能让您的视频在更多设备上流畅播放,还能方便地刻录成光盘,永久珍藏那些无法重来的美好瞬间。我们的工具正是为此而生,旨在帮助您轻松解决格式转换的烦恼,让您的视频资产发挥更大价值。

1

Your MTS file is demuxed — video, audio, and subtitle streams are separated

2

The video stream is decoded frame-by-frame, then re-encoded with VOB-compatible codecs (typically H.264 for MP4)

3

The audio stream is decoded and re-encoded (or copied if the codec is compatible)

4

Subtitle and chapter data is preserved where the target supports it

5

Streams are muxed into the VOB container and the file is saved
