What am I missing??

I have an iso of a dvd on my hd.

mplayer and vlc both play the iso but without sound. However if I mount 
the iso the vob files all play correctly. GGR!


Other iso files play ok in mplayer, vlc requires the chanel to be selected.

Suggestions welcome, there has been too much midnight oil burned on this 
problem now.


TIA

Answering my own query - as I have now got the answer for mplayer.

From the command line, enter 'mplayer dvd://1 -dvd-device /path to 
file.iso'


Still looking for what is needed for vlc to start with sound. At present 
it lloks like I need to separately select the audio track - 1 of 33 in 1 
instance.

Quite an old version of mplayer. This is what the current version says.

MPlayer SVN-r30554-4.4.2 (C) 2000-2010 MPlayer Team

There is also the question of the codecs.
