| I believe in the principle of Due Process  |
A friend gave me a DVD, containing a compilation of audio and video supposedly. I put it in the drive of my W10 machine, and nothing happens. Eventually a little window pops up to choose between doing nothing and searching for software. On the DVD, it has two folders, one named audio, the other named video. There are no files in the audio folder, and a number of files in the video folder with odd suffixes, .iob, .vob, etc. What is the best way to get this to play? TIA Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | ||

Sounds like you're missing the video codecs. Here's a link to a free codec pack you could try. I haven't had the need for extra codecs for years so maybe someone with more current experience might have additional recommendations. MS FAQ on codecs | |||

Actual DVD files, which you have in the .vob extension, will not play on Win10. You need a 3rd party player to play them. I searched on Bing with the phrase "will dvd files play on win10", several options came up about players. Don't know anything about the players listed. | |||

VLC should be able to play it: https://get.videolan.org/vlc/3.../vlc-3.0.1-win64.exe ...let him who has no sword sell his robe and buy one. Luke 22:35-36 NAV "Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves; so be shrewd as serpents and innocent as doves." Matthew 10:16 NASV | |||

another vote for VLC. Windows 10 did away with DVD playing. You can buy Microsoft's anemic version which doesn't do much more or you can get free VLC. "It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946. | |||

Jim, VLC is the ticket. Check your W10 properties to see if you are running a 32 or 64 bit version and dl the proper VLC for your system. Make VLC your main audio and video files player. 0-0 "OP is a troll" - Flashlightboy, 12/18/20 | |||

It sounds like the VLCs have it. Thanks, men! Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way.
