Wrong file plays

[Njem]

If I just let auto-play run or just play a DVD it plays the little menu file that's there by default. I have to hunt for the largest video file and "open with...". This is no good for the secretary trying to run an info DVD for visitors. How can I get this to play a DVD more smoothly. On v0.9.9 & XP.

Thanks

Update your VLC.

What file VLC plays and what it should play?

Back, and getting back to this problem.

Updated to current program.

I don't know much about how movie type DVDs auto-play or find their menus. I have two sample DVDs that play on WinMedia player or Dell DVD player with decoders that came with the system. But on another system with vlan I have to manually tell it what to play. Here are the details.

DVD1
Nothing in root or audio
video_ts folder has:
video_ts.vob 114K
video_01_0 27m
video_01_1 140m
In winmedia this autoplays the big video file. In vlan it plays the video_01_0 file which is just a short background animation that I suppose would be behind the menu, except this DVD wasn't set up to go to a menu but straight to the big file. So the "menu" has no menu selections, you're just stuck on this little looping animation. I have to manually find the big file and open it.

DVD2
Nothing in root or audio
video_ts folder has:
Video_ts.bup
Video_ts.ifo
Video_ts.vob
vts_01_0.bup
vts_01_0.ifo
vts_01_0.vob
vts_01_1.vob
vts_02_0.bup
vts_02_0.ifo
vts_02_0.vob
vts_02_1.vob
When this runs in winmedia it goes to a menu to choose between two main videos. I can't get vlan to show the menu no matter what I do. If I manually find and run one or the other main video files it shows them.

Thanks
