I have home video files which were transferred from cam to video and then to DVD. I copied the files to my computer as an extra back-up, but also would like to be able to view them. Each one has 2 folders: Video_RM and Video_TS. Inside Video_Rm we have Video_MN, Video_MN.IFO, Video_RM, Video_RM.BUP and Video_RM.IFO
Inside Video_TS there is: VTS_01_0.IFO, and then VTS_0_1,2,3,4 and 5
Could anyone please help me with what to do with these? I'm not that technically great so the simpler the better if possible.
I downloaded a program called DVD2AVI after reading another thread, but I don't think that's what I need.
View as in watch the files? If you just wanna watch the files, I'd suggest downloading VLC Media Player and using the Open Folder option under Media. Open the VIDEO_TS folder. Ignore the VIDEO_RM folder... I don't think it's even necessary. Typical DVD structure uses VIDEO_TS and all files associated with it are located within that folder. The *.IFO file contains the DVD structure and navigation information for each of the VOB files. The *.VOB files contain the video footage.
Ahhh... I was doing it the wrong way round... trying to open the file directly. When I searched for it FROM the media player it worked!
Thanks very much!
