2+ DVD movies (1 Viewer)

Ok,

I've been lurking the forums for a few weeks now. Searching and looking at each post hoping someone asked my quesiton before. No luck so here I go.

all my movies are in this format movie\VIDEO_TS\VIDEO_TS.ifo

I have some movies that have bonus discs. I used My Movies and I've entered the Bonus discs into the system. I read on here that you can use multiple discs and it'll prompt you. It doesn't it might be because i'm in .ifo format any ideas on how I can get that rolling? I'd know I could probably convert them to .iso that may solve it but I'd really rather not do this for 400 DVD's

thanks again.

Hi, sorry for my poor english!

I have made a Playlist-File (m3u) for the 2 DVD verssions like this:

#EXTM3U
#EXTINF: Der Da Vinci Code - Sakrileg Disc 1
F:\Video\Der Da Vinci Code - Sakrileg\Disc 1\VIDEO_TS\VTS_01_0.IFO
#EXTINF: Der Da Vinci Code - Sakrileg Disc 2
F:\Video\Der Da Vinci Code - Sakrileg\Disc 2\VIDEO_TS\VTS_01_0.IFO

Regards
Michael

will the playlist let me choose which disc to run?

basically

I'm trying to handle Side A's and B's as well as bonus discs

Yes, you can chose!

Here you can chose:

Having the same problem.
However this does not seem to work if you have a movie split on two physical DVDs.
Seems that you only get the "Choose Disc" dialog if "Disc#" or "CD#" is part of the filename / filepath.

thats my problem

Idealy,

I'd like to get the 2 disc choice with my 2 video_Ts folders but at this point it doesn't look like its in the cards. I'm actually tempted at this point to photo shop my 25 movies so that the cover art says BONUS ot Disc 2 or side B just to make my life easier.

But that should work from my experience.
The point is to have "Disc 1" / "Disc 2" as part of the pathname and create a m3u file as helios stated.

then in beautiful mind I have
disc 1
disc 2


disc1 leads to folder VIDEO_TS/VIDEO_TS.fio
disc 2 same deal VIDEO_TS/VIDEO_TS.ifo
tried it with my movies
redid it in ant same thing doesn't work. it tells me its invalid I even used the ; to seperate the files.

The separation via ; did not work here also.
Have you tried to put both files in a m3u file and specify that one in ant?
