Play VOB on Samsung Smart TV

How can I play VOB files on my Samsung Smart TV?



I have some old DVDs which have .vob video files on them. I want to copy them to external hard drive which I generally use to playback content on my smart TV. I want to know if I should just change the .VOB extension to .mpeg for playback on my Samsung TV or should I use the proper format conversion? I heard that . VOB are same as .mpeg.
