Your files stay on your Mac.
DVD VOB files store MPEG-2 video in a container designed for disc playback. Converting to QuickTime MOV repackages that footage into a format native to macOS apps like QuickTime Player, iMovie, and Final Cut Pro. The entire process runs locally—your files never leave your Mac.
Drag one or more VOB files—or an entire DVD folder—into Convertessa. Batch conversion processes whole folders in a single pass.
Pick QuickTime MOV from the output list. Optionally set quality to control how the lossy MOV codec balances file size and fidelity.
Click Convert. Convertessa processes everything locally—no upload, no waiting on a server. Your MOV files are ready when the progress bar clears.
Images, audio, video, documents, archives and eBooks — all converted natively, right on your Mac.
Pick a format you have — see everything Convertessa can turn it into.
Convert hundreds of files at once with per-type group defaults and individual overrides.
First-class support for HEIC, AVIF and WebP — encode and decode, both ways. Read JPEG XL and a dozen more modern formats too.
Drop files anywhere on the window. Native, instant, and exactly what you’d expect on a Mac.
Dial in compression, resolution and bitrate. Keep originals pristine or shrink for sharing.
Never overwrite a file by accident. Convertessa appends safe suffixes automatically.
Every job is logged locally. Re-run a previous conversion or revisit recent outputs in a click.
Bundle your converted files straight into a single ZIP, TAR or 7z — packaged and ready to share the moment a job finishes.
Right-click any file in Finder and choose Convert. A Quick Action handles it on the spot — no need to open the app first.
Shrink Convertessa to a tidy mini window that tucks into a corner — just a drop zone and a format picker for quick, one-off conversions.
No cloud. No account. No upload. Every conversion happens entirely on-device, using the power already in your Mac. What you convert is nobody’s business but yours.
Script conversions, wire them into your build, or batch a folder from the terminal. The same engine, no GUI required.

New formats, new features, and fixes — every release, on the record.
Yes. Convertessa carries the source resolution through unchanged—the output MOV matches the frame size of the original VOB file.
Yes. Drop the folder into Convertessa and it converts every VOB file inside in a single batch pass, outputting one MOV per source file.
MOV uses a lossy codec, so lowering quality reduces file size at the cost of some fidelity. Raise it to preserve more of the original detail. The quality slider lets you find the balance that works for your footage.
