If you have got some VOB files that you have copied from DVDs, you are able to play it with a DVD player or VLC on your computer. If you're interested in home entertainment, you would have the thoughts of streaming VOB movies to HDTV sharing with your family members for friends. To get the job done, you need the help of DLNA which allows you to stream media content between devices connected to the same home network, without having to store the content on both devices.
