VOB Video File

VOB (Video Object) is a container format used to store DVD-video content. VOB files typically contain multiplexed video, audio, subtitles, and menus. They are often encrypted for copyright protection. VOB video files are used for storing DVD movies, video recordings, and other multimedia content. They offer good video and audio quality, making them suitable for playback on DVD players and computers.

GIF Image

GIF is a raster graphics file format widely used for web graphics. It's popular for its ability to support animations and a limited color palette, making it ideal for small, animated graphics and simple images. GIF uses LZW lossless compression to reduce file size while preserving image quality. Suitable for creating animated memes, buttons, and other simple visual elements for online use.
