Vob is practically mpg, the only difference is subtitle tag data. Rename it to mpg and it'll work as an mpg (and should be detected as such by your file manager).

~ $ cd Vi* && mkdir DVD && cd *D
~/Videos/DVD $ vobcopy -D /dev/sr0
~/Videos/DVD $ cp *1* "Track 01.mpg"
~/Videos/DVD $ file "Track 01.mpg"
Track 01.mpg: MPEG sequence, v2, system multiplex

You know what to do :p
