Archived from groups: microsoft>public>windowsxp>video (more info?)

When I insert a DVD Movie the choices of actions that appear don't contain
the choice I would like to perform.
When looking at File Types I don't see one that coresponds to 'DVD movie' so
that I can edit/add the action I would like to perform.
I explore the disk it has one folder
VIDEO_TS
and in it there are files with extensions
BUF, IFO, VOB
and I can't find those in my File Types either
Help

I'm guessing you wish to play the DVD?

Do you have a DVD decoder installed....
PowerDVD for example? If you do...the
DVD should begin playing when you insert it.

Some info:

DVD decoder - media player windows

Actually I want to create a backup of some of our favorite movies and I want
to chose a program that doesn't come up when I insert the DVD (I can play it
no problem), but I can't find the Extensions BUF, IFO, VOB or the Type "DVD
movie".

Thanks for trying

If you have software that can copy a DVD...
open it and it should find the DVD that is
currently in your DVD drive.

Thanks for your reply but what I am after is that the DVD copying software
comes up as an option when I insert the disc.

Since you are posting in a Windows XP newsgroup...
I can only guess that you are running Win XP...

Maybe the following article will offer some ideas:
