When you installed VLC, did you associate VLC with DVD files?

michaelxx,

Right click on the file, and then select Properties; Under General Tab, click Change. Now, select your Default Player VLC. Afterwards, click OK twice.

VOB is not the name of the files, is the extension. They are vts_01_1.vob, vts_01_2.vob...You also probably have some files vts_01_0.ifo and vts_01_0.bup.
Right click on the one with VOB extension.

If you cannot see the extension of the files, when you browse the folder in Windows explorer, go to Tools->Folder Option->View, and un-check "Hide extension for known file types". Cick Apply->Okay. Now you should be able to see the files extensions.

I am using XP.
You have to burn all the files that re in that folder to DVD. You can use Nero if you have it, if not use ImgBurn .Have any of them?
