Should I capture in VRO or VOB ?

[MarcioAB]

Hello,

My stand alone VHS/DVD combo is able to copy a VHS tape and write it in VRO or VOB.
The on screen help does not say much about these 2 formats. It suggest that VRO is better for editing.
After copy, I will pass the result into VideoReDo to fix some capture sync issues and both formats (VRO and VOB) pass OK.
After all I will re-encode to H264.

While in MPEG2 land, I want edit and the best quality but back to start point: I'm not sure which format to use (VRO or VOB).

Any suggestion ?

Thank you
Marcio

There won't be any difference in quality between video saved as VOB or VRO files -- these are both types of MPEG file. It's probably more convenient to capture to VRO because that will be a single file that you can simply rename with a .MPG extension and import straight into your editing program. A VOB fileset may contain several VOB files and that may make editing a little more difficult.
