What is the .EVO file type?
The .evo filename extension denotes the Enhanced VOB (Video Object), EVO multimedia container format. It relates to the discontinued High-Definition/Density DVD (HD DVD) optical media format. A once-proposed successor for DVD, HD DVD uses EVO as the main container format for all its multimedia content. As a container format, EVO provides support for audio, video, and subtitle tracks (streams) as well as DVD-style menu functionality. Once backed by Toshiba, HD DVD has been abandoned since 2008.
An .evo file is an EVO container file, a large multimedia file most probably obtained from an HD DVD disk. Basically, an .evo file bears the same function as a .vob file in DVD, being an enhanced version of the latter, although EVO and VOB are not compatible. Inside an EVO container, video tracks can be encoded with the MPEG-2, H.264/AVC, or VC-1 codec, while for audio streams the AC-3, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD, MPEG-2, and PCM codecs are mainly used. On an HD DVD disk, .evo files are accompanied by .map metafiles.
EVO files can still be played back by several multi-format media players as well as converted (remuxed) into standard container formats, like MKV.
