VLC will not play most of ny DVD's

Postby Irionhead2 » 14 Aug 2020 09:38

Newbie...Today!
I have just downloaded this morning and can only play about 10% of my home DVD's/Videos.
Can anyone please help me?
My home recorded stuff goes back to 1989 and is mostly stored on DVD - I'm very anxious not to loose it!

This is the message I keep getting.
Playback failure:
Cannot play a non-UDF mastered DVD.
Your input can't be opened:
VLC is unable to open the MRL 'dvd:///H:/'. Check the log for details.

Your help is appreciated.
John.

As I understand it, you have not mastered a DVD but simply stored some videos on a DVD, right ?
If so, don't try to open your disc as a DVD but browse it for files you want to play as you would do with any other regular folder.
