back with more info... w/o going into detail as to the os x version you are using, nor the version of Toast used to create the original dvd (which from my limited os x knowledge shouldn't matter much) i will present an addendum to my last response with some links which might help sort things out for you.
If QuickTime Player can't open an audio or video file - Apple Support https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201290 you might also look into Mplayerextended.. m*play*er*osx*.ch/ MPlayer OSX Extended uses the MPlayer open source project for decoding , or VLC as options. need more info, please feel free to contact me at [email protected] (hope i did not violate any group rules by posting my email address.)
