I ripped a DVD on my G4 notebook using dvdburner and it makes a video_ts folder but when i try to open the files, nothing happens. Does any one know what im doing wrong? Appreciate the help
i get the same problem now... i have a pb g4 (1Ghz, 512 GB RAM, matshita superdrive, panther with os updates) and used dvd backup. first time i ripped a dvd to the hd, i was able to play the file with apple dvd player 4.0 (>> open video_ts folder) directly from the hd. i had the main menu and everything. afterwards, just for comparison, viewed the video with vlc (dl'd from the apple site). the main menu wouldn't work. when i tried to open the video again in the apple dvd player i got the dark screen instead. i've tried several times now with the same result - black screen and no movie. i tried closing the file and re-opening it to no avail. i've deleted vlc and re-installed the apple dvd player and did the whole ripping process all over again. now, i'm just gettting the dark screen when i open the video_ts file. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated... okay, i'm an idiot.... figured out what i was doing wrong....had to press 'play' on dvd player after i opened the video_ts folder. UGH!!!
