What changes when you convert TS to VOB
Because VOB supports MPEG-2 just like TS does, the video stream can be carried across without a quality-costing re-encode.
Anything above sd will be downscaled, because that is the practical ceiling for VOB where TS reaches uhd4k.
At 1080p, TS typically runs around 15 Mbps while VOB sits near 6.5 Mbps, which is the main driver of the size difference you will see.
This is an older container, introduced in 1996, and browsers will not play it directly. It is best suited to archival or a dedicated player.
