Re: Vob files
VOB files are DVD format. Media Play should play them, or download VLC player

Re: Vob files
VLC is your best bet. It'll play almost anything.

Re: Vob files
if you open the first ifo file it will play like a normal dvd . If you just open vob files then it will only play the single vob file and not any subsequent vobs unless in a playlist

Re: Vob files
what are you double clicking? do you have a file set or just one vob? to make sure you are opening the right file goto control panel and folder options and untick hide extentions. Then go back to your file set and right click the first file names VIDEO_TS.IFO and select open with and open it with vlc player
As I said before if you try to play a single file all it will play is the single file and not the set so for example if you try to open a .BUP file or a VIDEO_TS.VOB and not a VTS_**.VOB its not gonna play anything much

Re: Vob files
That's seems very small for a VOB file.
