DVD Folder does not play

Postby vlcjonny » 26 Jan 2011 16:47

I create with Videostudio 11 DVD Folders onto my HDD, which I once could play with VLC.

It is not working anymore, since a few updates (When? probably before 1.1.5). Currently I use 1.1.6. I open the folder with open media. Some of the files in the folder play when I click the next Button on vlc, but there is no menu for the DVD.

When I burn the folder onto a DVD (Nero DVD format) VLC plays almost correctly, I just have to click on next title to get to the menu - that is probably because I do not create a title menu. Although my DVD player goes directly to the menu with the chapters.

As you can see there are no strange characters in my path.

Error Message:

vlc jumps directly to sub menu per default
may be this causes the problems when u have no menu at all

(vlc skips intro and copyright infos of dvds)


to open dvds original wise like normal dvd players
u have to disable the function in the options

remove the hook (den haken raus nehmen) :)

Me Dummy must have been blind! The path included a '°', probably a strange character. I renamed the folder by removing this strange character, and that was it!

Anyway thanx for the help

Will be fixed in 1.2, then.
