    Not sure what you mean? Do you mean rip it from your DVD? If you want to play your video folders you can download VLC it's free and you will find it here http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
    Even if it's a little thing, do something for those who have need of help, something for which you get no pay but the privilege of doing it.

        The question is, what are you trying to use to play them with?

        I'd go with CBR929's suggestion and use VLC.

          what is the file format of the disc you ripped? and what application are you using to play the movie?

          anyway have you solved your problem and have tried CBR929 suggestion?

            I copied this from one of my previous posts, seems this should help you:
            "First, rip your DVD/ BD in .ISO format (this format is an image, or essentially a picture of your Blu-ray disc... if it make sense).
            Now, you would need a "virtual drive" that will look at the picture of your BD and interpret it into a "real disc".... Hopefully you are with me so far. DVDFab offering this kind of "drive" calling "DVDFab Virtual Drive". You can download it here:
            and install on your computer. When installed, find your .iso, right-click on it and you will see a new option: Mount to D: (E,Y,Z - whichever letter your computer will assign to this drive) with little DVDFab icon next to it. So, mount it. Now, you can go to VLC or any other player (My favorite is Media Player Classic Homecinema) that you may use, select virtual drive (with mounted disc on it) as a source, and enjoy the movie
