Hey Guys;
I’m running windows vista home premium
I can’t play VIDEO_TS.IFO, files on one of my computers anymore. It does not play in wmp 11 and does not play in VLC, but will play in Windows Media Center. I know the VIDEO_TS.IFO isn’t bad because those files will open on my laptop using WMP.
In WMP: Using Windows Exlporer, I’m right clicking on the file and using open with: WMP or VLC. In wmp it opens the program but nothing happens. It’s just a blank screen. The DVD icon doesn’t pop up either; that is left of the play button.
In VLC: I get this error message:
Playback failure:
DVDRead could not open the disk “C:\Users\Eric\Videos- DVD\Fun With Dick & Jane\V”.
Your input can’t be opened:
VLC is unable to open the MRL ‘dvd://C:\Users\Eric\Videos- DVD\Fun With Dick & Jane\V’. Check the log for details.
I tried looking for the VLC log for more details but can’t find where the log is located. VLC will play the .vob files, i just can’t get to the root menu like i used to be able to.
I’ve also uninstalled all my codecs and cleaned out the registry. Then re-installed the latest version of Vista Codecs.
In Windows Media Center: playing .ifo file will play the dvd file like if it was inserted into a normal dvd player. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
