Simply follow this tutorial to find the reason and the best way to fix VOB and Pinnacle incompatible issues. 

Q: "I have a few VOB clips that I need to incorporate into the Pinnacle Studio timeline, should I convert these VOB files to an other format first?" 
  
You may get some VOB files ripped from DVDs. When editing these videos with a video editor, you'll often run into troubles like import error, poor color or quality. In this article we aim to fast solve VOB to Pinnacle Studio incompatible issues. 

Actually, VOB such a kind of video file usually contains one or several audio tracks and subtitle tracks that are multiplexed together into one stream form. It is not the ideal format for editing purpose. Instead, MPEG2 is much more compatible with Pinnacle Studio. Thus, it's not optional but a must to decode your VOB files to MPG for Pinnacle if you want to achieve the best results. 

After getting some reviews online and multiple testing, I found one of the best VOB converter is Brorsoft Video Converter. It can help you change VOB into MPEG-2 with least quality loss. You should then be able to import the new file into Pinnacle Studio with smooth editing without any trouble. It will ensure a perfect VOB importing, playing and editing workflow with Pinnacle Studio.
