How to play DVD from .IFO file

Hello everyone,
When I was in another OS (:p), I was able to have the root of a DVD (VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS), and by selecting the .IFO file in the VIDEO_TS, I was able to watch the entire DVD with all the options and etc.
Is it possible to do it with VLC or Mplayer or other application with 1 single click without having to go to the terminal? (I am aware you can do it with mplayer but by going to the terminal)
Thanks
Regards

there's an User Tipp for that

How to play disk with .IFO file on it

I was given a CD with one file on it, an .IFO file.
It's supposed to have video of my niece's children's theatre play on it but I'm not sure what application to use to play this.
It could be that my niece's parents were well-meaning and didn't send the proper format or media.
Any help out there?

An .ifo file is an information file for a DVD. It stores information such as the chapters, subtitles, and audio tracks. It's not directly playable.
Are you sure that's the only file on the disc? Perhaps your view settings are putting some of the files outside of the viewable portion of the window - icon view sometimes does this.
If you Get Info on the disc (Command-I or in the Finder, File->Get Info), how much space is used on the disc?

OneStep DVD from movie file

The OneStep DVD from Movie file works fine for my 4:3 movies -- but I can't seem to figure out how to get my 16:9 movies to come out letterboxed when viewed on a standard screen. Is there some setting I can change to give me the results I need? I don't want or need anything more than a simple video that loops -- no theme, menu, etc -- so I haven't wanted to create a 'project'.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

I found the solution to my problem of burning a letterboxed SD 16:9 movie with iDVD on another forum and it worked like a charm! Details below:

Subject: Re: 16:9 and idvd 6
I'm not sure why but iDVD doesnt see the anamorphic flag on SD anamorphic QT movies. It WILL behave properly for HD QT files though.
This is the "Christopher S. Johnsnon" work around:
Open your anamorphic SD QT movie in QT player Pro.
Press Command-J
Highlight the Video settings in the list
Select Visual Settings in the tabs
UN-check Preserve Aspect Ratio
Change the width from 720 to 854
Hit Return and
Save the movie
Now bring it back into iDVD and you are good to go!!!

HT5517 how to play dvd on my computer on apple tv

how to play dvd on my computer on apple tv

Welcome to the Apple Community Jorge.
Firstly you will need your Mac to support Mirroring...
AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). You can see which Mac you have and which operating system you are using by selecting 'About this Mac' from the Apple menu in the top left corner of your Mac and selecting the 'More Info' button.
AirPlay Mirroring from a Mac also requires a fairly robust network.
Then you will need to use a 3rd party DVD player such as VLC since the Apple DVD Player software doesn't permit AirPlay Mirroring.

How to play dvds in itunes.

how to play dvds in itunes.

iTunes does not play video DVDs. If you want to play video DVDs on your computer, you need to use a DVD player application, something which is bundled with many, though not all, computers. You cannot stream a video DVD to your Apple TV with such a player, if that's your intent. If you want to play movies on your Apple TV, you need to purchase or rent them from the iTunes Store.

Disk Utility - Burning DVD from desktop file created from camcorder

I am unable to burn a DVD from a file on my desktop. When trying to use the upper tray, the disk drive won't remain closed and I am unable to proceed.
When using the lower tray, it begins the burn process, then returns this message:
Unable to burn file. The device failed to respond properly, unable to recover or retry.
The upper tray is a HL-DT-ST RW/DVD GCC-4480B
The lower tray is a Sony DVD RW DRU-530A.

Thanks for answering ALL the questions, too many times I ask as many questions as possible to get as much info as possible and I get a one line response.
4GB file with Disk Utility should be fine.
4x speed should be fine too, but you may want to try 2x, just in case the ATA-33 bus is struggling. The ATA-33 bus is the original bus in the MDD for the optical drives, the hard disks were on an ATA-66 and ATA-100 bus. Unfortunately ATA-33 is very limited in the amount of data it can reliably send in a given time, and 4x DVD burning is the absolute limit.
Sony DVD-R should be fine, many here are wary of Memorex media, I use it for temporary copies of product / games discs, but never for backups.
How is the external DVD burner attached ? FireWire ?
It really should be working, you've already confirmed that both the drives successfully burn CDs, so we know they're recognised and operating. And you've said the 4GB camcorder file is on your desktop, ie. on the internal hard disk, so we know it's not a speed issue with the source file, like if it was on a flash drive - or is it ? Or is it still on the camcorder ? If so get it copied to the internal hard disk.
Can you confirm the ATA-33 bus and Disc Utility support for the drive by using Apple System Profiler, if you select ATA, it should appear on the ATA-3 bus. You'll also have an ATA-4 and ATA-6 bus.
If you click on "ATA-3 bus" you should find an entry "Disc Burning" and it should say "Apple Supported" or similar. If it doesn't then I don't think you can burn with Disk Utility. Generally, above OSX 10.4.6 (or 10.4.5, can't remember exact) all these drives are supported, for burning and booting from. I suspect you're fine as you've said you burn CDs with it fine.
One thing some people do is to buy an ATA-133 PCI card, and run the internal hard disks off that and the ATA-100 on the motherboard. Then use the motherboard ATA-66 slot to drive the optical drives. Don't spend any money yet, we'd have to confirm that the burn speed is the issue. Like said, try burning at 2x or 1x.
Apologies now if my Apple System Profiler instructions are not 100% accurate, my OSX 10.5.5 Mac is unavailable just now so I've based my instructions on OSX 10.3.9 ASP.

How to remove Unicode from XML file

I get following error when unmarshal xml:
[java] org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x15) was found in the element content of the document.
Anyone know how to remove Unicode from xml file? Can I remove the unicode by rebuild the file?
Thanks

These sort of error usually occur when you're using a different character encoding to read the file than the one you wrote it with. Perhaps if you were to post the problem section of the file and/or the code that created it in the first place.

What is the proper way to load images from css in Java 8?
Ref
How to load images from css file in JavaFX 8 - Stack Overflow

There is nothing special to do - you execute the statement from your program just like any other SQL statement. The only thing to be aware of are the privilege/permission issues:
When loading from a file on a client computer:
READ CLIENT FILE privilege is also required for the database user.
Read privileges are required on the directory being read from.
The allow_read_client_file database option must be enabled.
The read_client_file secure feature must be enabled.
Revoking these privileges is also the only way you can prevent a user from executing the statement.

Help me how to read the Hyperlinks from the PDF file using java ...
Thanks in advance,

Instead of cross-posting unformatted code you could have taken a look at the API, because there you might have come across a method named getLinks...Even though it's not documented, I really suspect that it will return the Hyperlinks on a given page.
