Re: Playing DVD's without the Disk

[Charles Martin]

From: john coz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Hi Charles - based on earlier reponses I copied the
entire DVD as a disk image, onto my desktop for easy
retreival.  When I go to play it through DVD Player,
it "knows" that there is a movie wanting to play but I
get herky-jerky video and audio, or sometimes just
audio.  The little grey control panel does not seem to
properly control the movie at all.
Would copying just VIDEO_TS, rather than the entire
DVD, help at all?
It might, or you might have a badly fragmented HD or not a lot of free 
space left. You might also try downloading VLC (free) and playing the 
DVD image or VIDEO_TS folder with that to see if that improves things.
