Can I add and play DVD .vob videos on iPhone 5C & iPhone 5S Quickly

By converting VOB to MP4 videos, you can easily get the DVD vob files playable on your iPhone 5C & iPhone 5S at ease on Windows and Mac.


Apple has unveiled the iPhone 5s (the successor to the iPhone 5) and the new iPhone 5c, the colored version of last year’s flagship device. Apple has announced a slew of new features with the iPhone 5s, including a new A7 chip for improved performance, a better camera sensor with larger pixels, a True Tone dual-LED flash intended to match the color tone of your subject better and a fingerprint scanner built into the phone’s home button.

How do you think Apple’s new iPhones compare to the latest Android phones?



I have some .vob files copied from DVDs. I’m wondering if I can put these DVD videos to my iphone 5c for watching. Does the new iPhone 5C play .vob format? 

Currently ios phone (iPhone 5C & iPhone 5S) supports m4v, .mp4, .mov, MPEG-4, H.264, M-JPEG video codecs. As you see, the .vob isn't in one the the supported formats. Some powerful media players can't decode the VOB files. Finally, if you really want to play DVD .vob files on your iPhone 5C & iPhone 5S, the best solution is to encode/re-encode VOB to iPhone 5C/5S supported video formats like MP4 first. Here is how:

In the first place, you need to download DVD VOB to iPhone 5C/5S Converter, a professional iPhone 5C/5S Converter which supports converting DVD VOB files to most suitable profile for iPhone 5C/5S with simplest workflow and reliable video quality.

Overall, the program can be used as an all-in-one video conversion app for converting Blu-ray, DVD and various kinds of videos to your iPhone or iPad IOS devices. Besides converting, you can freely a

The output videos could fit on your device perfectly. To get the preset, you should also install the Patch in advance, but now only windows version have the patch file.



Step 3. Add subtitle you need by click "Edit" button.

Convert Sony AX1 4K XAVC S Videos to QuickTime MOV for playback on Mac

In this XAVC S to QuickTime MOV conversion guide, you will learn the easy way to convert Sony FDR-AX1 4K XAVC S to QuickTime Player for watching freely on Mac

Sony’s new Handycam model the FDR-AX1 priced $4,500, recording at a maximum resolution of 3840 x 2160 in 60p (also 24p, 30p, 25p, and 50p), is Sony’s first attempt at targeting common consumers who want to shoot 4K resolution footage of their own. It does is the ideal choice for recording 4K video in low cost, but I have to say that the terms "simple" and "manageable" in regards to Sony video cameras is a very long stretch at best because it uses XAVC S as the recording codec.


XAVC S video format can keep footages in 4K resolution (4096 2160 and 3840 2160) at up to 60 fps, and the shortcoming of this codec is that you will only be able to edit it on Sony Vegas, and it will take time for media players like QuickTime to develop support for the codec. To solve Sony AX1 4K XAVC S files with Mac QuickTime incompatible and playback issue, the best solution is to convert XAVC S files to QuickTime MOV. To do the job, here is the best solution.

Pavtube XAVC S Converter for Mac offers an easy way to convert Sony AX1 4K XAVC S to QuickTime MOV for playback on Mac. With it, you will be able to import XAVC S videos from Sony AX1 to your QuickTime for playback with ease. Besides, by converting XAVC S to MOV, you can transfer the generated files to your iPhone, iPad, Apple TV 3, etc to play with ease. If you are a Windows user, you can turn to XAVC S Video Converter, which share similar functions with the Mac Version.

Step through: Converting Sony FDR-AX1 4K XAVC S to QuickTime MOV for playing

Step 1. Run Pavtube Mac Sony XAVC S to MOV Converter. Click "Add file" or "Add from folder" button, browse to the footages and load them to the converter.


Step 2. Select the items to be converted, and click on "Format" bar to set a QuickTime format in template.

Click on the drop-down list of "Format", and follow "Common Video"> "MOV-QuickTime (*.mov)". This is the best format for playbakc with QuickTime Player.



Step 3. Click the "Settings" button and set proper video/ audio parameters. You can reset set the video size, bitrate and fame rate. If you would like to use default settings, simply skip this step.



Step 4. Click the "Browse" button next to the Output File Name field and select a location on your HDD for the output video file.

Step 5. Click the "Convert" button to start conversion. After conversion you can click the "Open" button to locate converted video files. As the converted mov format is compatible with mac, you can view Sony FDR-AX1 4K XAVC S files with the Mac QuickTime Player freely.

Top IOS Device- iPad Air vs iPad 4 vs iPad 2: specs comparison

Summary: This article will give a comparison for Apple iPad Air, Apple iPad 4 and Apple iPad 2. If you are an Apple fan, you can take it as reference for you to choose the best IOS device yourself. 
 

Well, even though we weren't exactly caught by surprise by the offerings of the fifth-generation iPad, Apple has at least surprised us with the name of its new full-sized tablet. So, here it is, the iPad Air, and boy does it deserve the new name! The iPad Air is extremely thin and weighs just 16.86 oz (478 g), which is a great improvement compared to the iPad 4's 23.35 oz (662 g). So, that's OK, but what about the other specs of the new tablet? How's good's the new processor, how does it compare to its predecessor? And perhaps even more importantly, exactly how does it compare to the specs sheet of the iPad 2? Why is that? Well, it's because the iPad 2 actually stays on sale as a more affordable tablet starting at $399.


As you can imagine, starting November 1, there will be a lot of users wondering which one to pick up, and so what better way to find out than to take a close look at the exact differences between the two? Of course, keep in mind that specs aren't all, and there are some things that cannot be seen or felt on paper, but still, a good old specs comparison remains one of the most informative ways of finding out which device would be best for you. Isn't that right?
