Bup, dat, ifo, vob formats- how can I read these files?

Hi- I have a MBP running Leopard and have a DVD of my grandson in utero that I want to play on my computer but these formats are not recognized by iDVD. Any ideas of what I can do? I am stumped. Thanks, Judy

if you're simply looking to play the video try VLC.
On the other hand if you want to incorporate the video into an iDvd presentation; that may be more complicated since you may require the help of a third party app in order to first convert the files to a QT recognizable format. Apps that do this well include but are not limited to:
1. Visual Hub
2. Mpegstreamclip
3. Apple's QT Pro (which may also require additional QT playback components).
4. Dvdxdv
Your choice.

  • How can I read text files from LAN if I only know the hostname?

    I'm new in Java Developing, and dont know the written classes yet. I need help, how to do the following steps?
    <p>1. How can I read text files from LAN if I only know the hostname, or IP address?
    <p>2. How to read lines from text files without read all lines from the beginning of file, just seek to a position.
    (ex. how can I read the 120th line?)
    <p>Please help!
    <p>sorry for the bad english

    I'm new in Java Developing, and dont know the written classes yet. I need help, how to do the following steps?
    1. How can I read text files from LAN if I only know the hostname, or IP address?You need to know the URL of the file. You need to know the hostname, port, protocl and relative path.
    The hostname is server, not file.
    2. How to read lines from text files without read all lines from the beginning of file, just seek to a position.Use the seek() to get to a random byte.
    (ex. how can I read the 120th line?)The only way to find the 120th line is to read the first 120 lines. You can use other file formats to find the 120th line without reading the whole file but to need to be able to detremine where the 120th line is

  • How can I read a file directly please?

    Hello everyone,
    How can I read a file directly from a script please? I tried the insert into ... values but it does not work. I really have to read the file instead of entering the data via the interface. Does Oracle have a copy command? Each file line is split with tabs for each field in the line.
    Finally how can I subdivide the strings in each field?
    Thank you very much indeed and sorry for the basic questions.

  • How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?

    How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?
    I have made a LabVIEW program where I have possibility to read a PDF document.  When I made this LabVIEW program it was Acrobat Reader 5.0.5 that was installed on the PC. Lather when the Acrobat Reader was upgraded to version 6.0, there was an error when VI tries to launch the LabVIEW program. And Later again when we upgraded to Acrobat Reader 7.0.5 I must again do some changes and rebuild the EXE files again
    It isn't so very big job to do the changes in one single LabVIEW program, but we have built a lot of LabVIEW programs so this take time to due changes every time vi update Acrobat Reader. (We have build EXE files.)
    The job is to right click the ActiveX container and Click "Insert ActiveX Object", then I can brows the computer for the new version of acrobat Reader. After this I must rebuild all the "methods" in the Activex call to make the VI executable again.
    Is there a way to build LabVIEW program so I don't have to do this job every time we update Acrobat Reader?
    This LabVIEW program is written in LabVIEW 6.1, but I se the problem is the same in LabVIEW 8.2.

  • How can I read a file with ASCII Special Character into a SQL table using SSIS 2008?

    I've tried everything to read this file and am getting no where.   Help how can I read this file and load a SQL table?
    RS - AscII - 30  (Record Separator)
    GS - AscII - 29 (Group Separator)
    Thank you for your assistance - Covi
    Mark Covian

    We can use script component as source/transformation to read the text file and assign the contains to a string. Split the string by chr(30)  i.e RS and finally stored into an array or write to the output buffer of the script component.
    For example on how to use script component refer this link

  • Iphoto and itunes files disappeared when i upgraded to os mavericks. How can i access these files?

    iphoto and itunes files disappeared when i upgraded to os mavericks. How can i retrieve these files? Time machine is not opening my backup files on an external Lacie HD.

    Apple keeps books for a short time (used to be 40 days. I've not seen a recent time frame)
    What version did you have?
    Books do nor exist except in the iPhoto database so you can not "find" a book vista TM. You restore a previous library (be sure NOT to overwrite your current library) and switch to it

  • How can you read datalog files in LabVIEW?

    I have a VI that records time and waveform data and writes them as a cluster to a datalog file. I have been unable to read these files in any way, however. I have been working with the datalog examples in LabVIEW, but I have not been able to figure out how to use the Read Datalog File example effectively. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can either use this example to read waveforms, or how I can design a VI to read datalog files in another way? Thanks.

    Hi,
    when you read from a datalog file you have to wire to the datalog type input of the Open File function a cluster of the same type as the clusters when you created the file; each cluster is a record.
    In the example Write Datalog File Example.vi you see that each record consists of a cluster containing a string and 1D array of DBL; in the Read Datalog File Example.vi a cluster of exactly the same type is wired to the datalog type inputs.
    You can use this example to read your datalog files but you must wire to the datalog type input a cluster containing the time data and a waveform data; pratically you have to tell how the data are saved in your file.
    I hope I have been clear enough, eventually if you tell me how you save the time data (string, numeric) I
    can modify the example to read your datalog files.
    Good luck,
    Alberto

  • The files are no longer available. How can I open these files again?

    The files are no longer available, how can i open this files again?

    Hi markkanselaar,
    Did you have files uploaded to Acrobat.com that are no longer there? If so, please log out and clear the browser cache, and then log back in to https://cloud.acrobat.com/files. If the files still aren't there (and you didn't delete them), then try logging in using another supported browser (System requirements | Acrobat.com).
    Best,

  • I have deleted all pictures that were in trash; how can I recover these files?

    my kids might have deleted all the pictures and videos from my mac book; I was cleaning my mac and emptied the trash without checking the details and lost all the pictures and videso. Please advise if there is a way I can recover/restore these files, without shelling a lot of money for purchasing third party tools.

    Buy a couple backup drives. Clone your drive(s) with Carbon Copy Cloner, gives you a bootable backup / can archive files as well. And to be redundant you want two backup sets. So have at least one TimeMachine backup running also.
    Data Rescue 3 - demo
    But, the more you use your system the less likely to find any. And you do need a drive to recover to.
    Time to go shopping for one or two disk drives at minimum. Say USB3 or something. Try Amazon for bare drives and cases. Try OWC for kits.

  • How can I put these files from my dropbox into MS Word?

    After using migration assistant, I had 2 user accounts set up by accident. I finally figured out how to move/share files from the cloned user account to my new account. Anyway, I moved all my music and pictures into itunes and iphoto, but now, how & where do I drag and drop my pdf, excel, & word files into Microsoft Office? I am a new apple user, converting from a PC. Here is a picture of the Drop Box. Thank you

    Similar to a PC, you can open Word, Excel, etc., and use the File/Open command to navigate to any folder, including that drop box, to open files. Also similar to a PC, you can store Microsoft Office files in any folder inside your Documents folder, so you can simply drag your Office files out of the drop box and into whatever project folders you have created within your Documents folder, and then open them in Office from there.
    You can also open any of these documents in Word or Excel by dragging them to the appropriate application icon if they are visible, or if you have added Word, Excel, etc. application icons to the Dock you can drag the documents there too. That last part is much like on a PC where you drag a document from any folder to an application icon in the Windows Taskbar.
    As you can see there is actually very little difference in how this works between a PC and a Mac.

  • How can I read pdf files in linux?

    I know the pdf files can be read by Adodb acrobat,but i can not find the software for linux,How can I download the similar tools ?
    Thanks for advance.

    You can download AcrobatReader fro Linux from adobe.com like the versions of rother OS'es.
    however if you want a nicer UI than Acrobat consider using gv with ghostscript. They might already be installed on your system, since they are part of most Linux distributions.
    It's worthwhile to upgrade Ghostscript to the most recent version, othervise you will be unable to read pdf files that utilizes the newest fads from Adobe.

  • Spc.fp and spc.h not found, How can I get these files

    Hello
    I get a project from my friend, I opened it and built it, then there was an error, spc.h file not found.
    Then I double clicked on the file spc.fp , it told me that the spc.fp not found.
    I have used everything to search them , but I got nothing
    Does someone can help me to get these files? 
    Thank you!
    Clasu.

    .fp files are small libraries of functions ("Instruments") normally associated to specific devices (e.g. a scope, a DMM or something similar) or to specific softwares (CVI comes with a set of instruments like the Programmer Toolbox, the Password Control and so on).
    spc.fp may relate to Statistical Process Control Toolkit for CVI, a product whose only references on NI site date back to 1998 and is not listed any more among toolkits for CVI.
    Can you ask your friend if my hypothesis is correct?
    I do not know of any other standard CVI instrument with that acronym: could this .fp be a library of functions your friend wrote by himself?
    Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.
