Winamp will not play DVDs like that.

You are indeed seeing the folder structure of the DVD. You might be able to 
play the individual files if they are not encrypted, but I think on most 
commercial DVDs, they would be, and anyway, this is not a very convenient way 
to play anything as there is no chapter/title selection, and it certainly 
wouldn't play automatically.

I recommend getting VLC for this purpose. I think some versions of Windows 
media Player will do this too, but not all of them. I have never liked WMP so 
never used it for anything, so someone else on the list will have to chime in 
about that.

Subject: [all-audio] Playing DVDs on a Windows PC

For some reason which I do not understand, commercial DVDs do not start playing 
automatically when I insert them into the DVD drive on my PC. In fact, I can’t 
get them to play at all. I had thought I set Winamp to play these but may be 
wrong about this. When I launch a DVD, if I check the properties, I see that 
there is a Video TS folder and sometimes an Audio TS folder.

So please tell me what is likely wrong and how to resolve the issue.

Thanks.

Don Roberts
