    You probably need an mpeg-2 decoder, or the original is a fake and contains no video anyhow.
    Try playing in WinDVD or PowerDVD (or even Nero Showtime).

    I believe VLC includes an (unlicensed) MPEG-2 decoder. Of course being unlicensed that still makes rebootjim's suggestion the best place to start.

    Edit: Let's give this thread a better title to see if you get more help ;)

    VLC will play most stuff, but even it can fail on some things...which is why I mentioned that it may be a fake file to begin with, or whatever process you used to get a .vob has failed.
