Ripped DVD [IFO/VOB] playback & MC10 vs MC11
« on: December 14, 2004, 01:01:07 am »

Just checking to see if I have this straight:  I have about 80ish DVDs ripped to my system in IFO/VOB format.  I own MC MC10, TheaterTek, SageTV. I've been using myHTPC as a menu&control program, but it's been acting very unstable as soon as I crossed the 70 DVD mark.

I just clued in that MC can act as a menu&control program for DVDs, but I've read that it doesn't work in MC10.

Will moving to the MC11 Alpha work for playing ripped DVDs? Also, can I use TT to actually do the playback?

Thanks for your help.

How did it go, ivp?   Did you give 11 a try?

Will do this weekend; was hoping for some guidance before going through the effort as I'm only allowed a finite amount of playtime on the HTPCs. Wife gets bugged if I do too much, and if this was going to be a waste of time, I wasn't going to even try.

Sorry, just noticed this post. I don't get back here that often.

I never bothered with MC11 as I found a post that said DVD playback wasn't yet supported. I also just asked about it, and I just checked again and there's nothing about IFO support in MC11.

I'm dying for a good answer to this; i think that many of us are on the edge of having a staggeringly awesome experience, with SageTV for TV, MC for music, TheaterTek for DVDs.
