How to play a DVD Movie from HDD?

[Gummigutta]

Version 1.0.2.1.

In the "old" version 1.0.2.0 I could use the function "Open File" and then browse to a folder on the HDD and double click on the VIDEO_TS file and the DVD Movie was opened and started to play. In this new version - nothing happens.

Is it just for me that this no longer works?

Win7/64

Edit:

If the DVD compliant files resides inside a VIDEO_TS folder and I want to open that folder - nothing shows up. It just exits the "Browse for File" window and returns to the main window.

We will check this ASAP.

My first post is fixed. Thanks for that!

Assume I have a DVD movie saved on the HDD.

If the DVD files (.ts, .bup, .vob) are not located inside a VIDEO_TS folder, it's not possible to start the play back using the VIDEO_TS.IFO file. Could this be changed?

I just click on the VIDEO_TS folder and it plays the movie. Works a treat!

True. But if you don't have one? Most other players can start the play back just from the VIDEO_TS.IFO file.

Ok, I've never saved to the HDD that way. Can you make a video_ts folder and copy the files into it? I might try that.

Yep that worked, I created a VIDEO_TS folder on the desktop and copied the contents of a movie folder into it and it played by clicking the folder. Maybe something to get by until the functionality is added.

If I put the files inside a VIDEO_TS folder, then the playback works.

We will improve it in near future.

Now it works in version 1.0.2.7. Thanks for that!
