How to Play VOB With a Flash Drive

Flash drives of various shapes and sizes are available at computer stores.

A flash drive is a device that connects to your computer's USB port and allows you to store and use other files. The VOB format stands for "Video Object" and it's one of the main video files used in DVD movie discs. This type of file if what you often end up with when you "rip" a movie off a DVD. If you have a VOB file on your flash drive, you can play it directly from there using Windows Media Player if you download a supplement codec for it.

Instructions

1. Download and install a supplement like Media Player Codec Pack for the native program Windows Media Player, which will allow it to play VOB files.

2. Connect your Flash drive to your computer's USB port.

3. Click the "Open" folder option when it appears on screen. Click "OK." If it doesn't, click "Start" in Windows and select "My Computer" to open the flash drive folder manually.

4. Right-click on the VOB file in the flash drive folder. Select "Open with" and then click "Windows Media Player" to begin playing your VOB.
