Video_TS files?

Hey guys quick question i downloaded a DVD off the net (legally may i add!) which has come in the format of a folder called VIDEO_TS with a load of .VOB, .IFO & .BUP files in it. anyway i can burn this folder on to a DVD? cheers

just drag the folder that includes sub folders "audio_ts" [if there is audio] and "video_ts" to the toast v.7 program. If the "video" choice in Toast is not highlighted, highlight that and then you will have a number of options as to how to encode and record it. This will depend on the media you have (single or dual layer dvd) and the space required. Then just let Toast take over. Does a good job and, depending on the size of the file and the speed and ram of your computer, give it some time. I find that the encoding takes the longest time. You'll have options regarding chapers, level of encoding (less compressed or more compressed), etc.

Buring DVD-R after creating Video_TS file

I built a DVD in DVD Studio Pro and the log did not report any errors. I then tried to burn a 4.7 GB DVD-R with the VIDEO_TS file but soon into the burning process I keep gettig the same error code "result code=18771" and the message reads "Could not record the disc b/c there is a problem with source material." Does anyone know what this means and how I can correct this issue? My file size is 2.3 GB so it should fit on the 4.7 GB DVD-R. Any tips?

Your project is already built on your hard drive. It might be a good idea to delete the build and do it again, but you can also select to format the current build. Select format from DVDSP and as your source locate your Video_TS folder. And as your destination choose hard drive as the output device. This will create a single file with the extension .img. You then use Disc Utility to burn the DVD.
Here is some more info on how to burn DVD's with disc utiltiy.

DVD Player plays DVDs but will not play VIDEO_TS files from my hard drive

When logged into my home account DVD Player plays DVDs but will not play VIDEO_TS files that are on my hard drive. I get an error message: "there was a problem opening the media. Media type is not supported." When logged in as "root" DVD player does play these same files. Also, when logged in to my home account, I can play these same files in VLC.

Go this this thread for more details:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1075814
But the gist of the fix is to delete or rename "~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.DVDPlayer.plist" and let the DVD Player build a new one. It seems that this is caused by a migrated PPC preference that borks DVD Player 5 on Intel Macs, which is what just happened to me. Hope this helps.

Toast sees Two video_ts files in disc image

After the update to 6 we were getting repeated reports that dvds would not play. All were created in iMovie and burned via iDVD. We created a disc image as a workaround and burned using Toast at 4x speed, 8x Maxell DVD-R media.
The problem is that the disc image contains 2 video_ts files, one for the title sequence, the other for the balance of the movie. When played two videos appear, one of the title and one of the movie.
Are we exporting incorrectly? Is there a way to combine these files so that third party burn software sees one, not two, video_ts files?

I don't see how you can have 2 folders called 'VIDEO_TS' at the root level of a disk image - duplicate names are NOT allowed. How can 2 folders with identical names exist at the same directory level of your disk image?
At the root level of your disk image (when mounted on your desktop by double-clicking on the .img file) you should see a 'VIDEO_TS' folder and 'AUDIO_TS' folder. The 'AUDIO_TS' folder will be empty.
Inside the 'VIDEO_TS' folder you should see things like VIDEO_TS.BUP, VIDEO_TS.IFO, VIDEO_TS.VOB, VTS010.BUP, VTS010.IFO, and VTS011.VOB
Since I have the VLC Player installed, double-clicking on the VIDEO_TS.VOB brings up the menu and double-clicking on the VTS011.VOB plays the actual video content. (If I had more than one clip, there would have been more VTSxxx.VOB files.)
Just for clarification: the disk image file we are talking about was made by iDVD 6 using the FILE>Create Disk Image command sequence and no version of Toast was involved. Is this correct?

Any way to import a Video_TS file into DVD SP or Compressor?

I need to replace the simple menu on a DVD made from a DVD recorder.
Is it possible to import the existing Video_TS file and build a new menu? If not, is there some way to do this with DVD SP with the least amount of compression? I know Toast will do this directly, but I prefer the flexibility of DVD SP's menus.
Thanks in advance.

You can demux the VOBs using MPEG Streamclip http://www.squared5.com/ directly into m2v and audio files and then author the disc.

Using MPEG streamclip to convert VIDEO_TS files (DVDs) with chapters

I am using MPEG Steamclip to convert DVDs (ie VIDEO_TS files).
Where the DVD has no chapters then it converts in one go into a new file.
However where the DVD has some chapters, it gives me an option to convert each chapter individually. I actually just want to convert the whole DVD in one go, with all the chapters merged together - is there any way to do this?
Thank you

Thanks for the help

Preview image of video_TS files

hello
I have some video_TS files in my movies folder that dont show a preview of the film in front row.. Anyone know how i can overcome this??

Simon

You can put a file named "Preview.jpg" inside the VIDEO_TS folder. This should be the icon that appears in Front Row.

Playing VIDEO_TS files without a DVD drive.

Hellp,
Im looking for a way to play my ripped (with mac the ripper) DVD VIDEO_TS files. I know that you can do this through the mac DVD player, but my ibook doesn't have a DVD drive, so the player will not start. I ripped the files onto my G4 Tower and wish to read them from an external HD. How do i get around DVD player needing a DVD drive? other than getting a noew CD-Drive that can read DVD's, what are my oprions? thanks

You could hook it up to the G4 via FireWire Target Disk Mode, but I'm guessing that's not the solution for what you want to do?
You could get an external drive that will read DVD's.
You can burn the DVD's to multiple CD's so they will play in the iBook (maybe, assuming the files are compatible with software on the iBook).
There is no way to make DVD player play DVD's without a DVD player. Sorry.

Video_TS files not playing

my iMAC 3.06 Intel Dual core does not play Video_TS files, if i burn the same file onto a DVD and play it on a Macbook, the movie plays, but not on my iMAC. Gives error message "The media type is not supported".

Thanks for the fast responce!

I've had a VHS tape converted to DVD. The DVD contains several Video_TS files, which I am not familiar with. I was able to play the original on both my iMac and TV but not copy them. I had copies made but they won't play. Why?

I've had a VHS tape converted to DVD. The DVD contains a Video_TS folder containing several Video_TS files. I tried to copy the disk. The Video_TS files copy but I can't play the DVD. What is the problem?

Hi
Most probably You've made Your copies as Data-DVDs.
If You put in a blank DVD - Your Mac want's to format it and put it on DeskTop/Finder for You to put files and document onto it. Then on Eject it Burns it - and as a Data-DVD. They will never Play on any DVD-Player.
If You want a Video-DVD then You've to go via a program that can structure Your DVD as such e.g. iDVD or Disk Util tool or Roxio Toast™.
Disk Util tool - can copy a home made Video-DVD to new Video-DVD copies.
Start Disk Util tool
Insert Master DVD
select to copy it
Eject it when asked to do so
Insert Blank DVD - WHEN YOUR Mac ASKS FOR IT - Else You make a Data-DVD which You don't want.
THIS process do not work for Commercial CopyProtected DVDs - and would be illegal any way. Take Care.
Yours Bengt W

Software to play Video_ts files

Does anyone know any software (ideally freeware) that can play video_ts files please?

VLC Media Player should do it for you.

Compress Video_TS files?

Hey everyone,
I was wondering if there was any Freeware out there that will help me compress video_TS files.
If so, where do I look?
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.7)
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Do you mean like Stuffit type app? Usually files are fairly compressed to begin with, you are better off getting extra HDs or DVDs, unless really pressed for space, compressing/decompressing large files (DV etc.) will not save that much room compared to the time. I have tried and still do, but usually waiting to get 4 Gigs to 3.8 Gigs ain't worth it ( I have not gotten Stuffit 10 or some of the newer things, Toast does okay also to some degree, but not huge space savings)

Watching Video_TS files on QuickTime

I have some Video_TS files and I'm wandering if u could watch them on quicktime.

Thanks..At least I know that I am not doing something wrong. I was trying to put some teaching videos on my iPod, but for some reason Handbrake would only get the first 43second intro menu. The Quicktime MPEG-2 component would view and export but no sound and you have explained why.
Thanks.

Reading of VIDEO_TS files in MacOSx??

Hi, is there any program out there for mac which allows the viewing of videos for VIDEO_TS folder's files (Extracted directly from DVD movies)....
I am hoping not to do any conversion to other format at all.
I understand that windows windows media player have no problem doing that...but I had failed doing this in a MacOS...even after installing Flip4Mac to Quicktime.
Any advice?

vlc player should do the trick http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
Hmmmh: it looks like you have copied the DVD directly, you should also have an "AUDIO_"(...something) file next to your "VIDEO_TS" - but if the DVD was copy protected, no player will play it.

Front row crashes on particular Video_TS file stored on other Mac

Hello, I have an iMac with some soft copies of movies I own. I use the iMac to serve up Video_TS folders to several other Macs in my home. I notice that on all of the Macs (including the iMac hosting the shared folders,) if front row ever crashes when reading the file or anything interrupts the initial read causing it to exit early, that folder will never be readable my that Mac again. No matter what I do there seems to be some kind of cached file that makes front row crash when I try to read that same file again.
I can login as a different user on the same Mac and it will work. Is there a user specific cache for front row that can be cleared? Thanks for any advice, pointers or assistance. Joel

Can you play the same video_ts folders using the regular DVD Player application? Or do you get (maybe) a more detailed error?
