VOB File Playback

[jdkarr01]

I am trying to watch VOB files that I have ripped from DVDs that I have and Game Ex doesnt seem to recognize them. I can play the files in VLC and it works great. However when I go through Game Ex it says it can't find any files. I go into the movie player and navigate to a folder that has a VOB file and it says that it can't find any video files. Is game ex capable of playing these files? If so am I doing something wrong?

I'm not an expert at all and maybe I'm telling bullshit but what I would try is to rename the *.vob to *.mpg or maybe to *.avi... Give it a try, you've nothing to loose...

I believe it looks for the VIDEO_TS folder just like on a DVD. As an example, if you specified C:\DVDS as your dvd folder and you wanted to watch the Empire Strikes Back, GameEx would find it in C:\DVDS\EMPIRE_STRIKES_BACK\VIDEO_TS. All of your VOB files should be in the VIDEO_TS folder. Of course I could be totally wrong on all of this but it has been the method to my madness and it works for my set-up.
