VTS_01_1 file does not play

I have a Panasonic DMR-BWT735 which allows me to create dvd format items from recorded tv programmes,
writing them to DVD-RW,copying on to PC storage (internal hard disk). I use Windows 7 on my PC.

Video_TS folder contains files

VIDEO_TS.BUP
VIDEO_TS IFO
VTS_01_0.BUP
VTS_01_0 IFO 42Kb
VTS_01_1 DVD VOB 99Gb
VTS_01_2 DVD VOB 99GB
VTS_01_3 DVD VOB 99GB
VTS_01_4 DVD VOB 542Mb

If I click on VIDEO.TS or any of VTS_01_0 thru VTS_01_41, Windows Media Player will open, and play the film data,
always starting at the first scene contained in VTS_01_1.

If I ask file VTS_01_1 to OPEN With VLC, VLC opens in a Window, but does not play the file or give any error messages.
It seems to "ignore" it.

Opening the other files with VLC (VIDEO.TS and VTS_01_2, etc ) works fine.
VIDEOTS play the film data, starting at the first scene contained in VTS_01_1.
VTS_01_0 as VIDEO_TS
VTS files (2,3 or 4), play in VLC but starting at the scene in that particular file.
That is not a problem, and in some respects better than the Windows Media Player approach


I find this a bit strange.
There is obviously something in VTS_01_1 which VLC does not recognise or like,
but it will play it successfully if I access it from VIDEO.TS.

Any thoughts? Thank you
