MVids problem with VOBs? (1 Viewer)

[Jedfordski]

Hi guys,

I've installed the MVids plugin and it works fine with the crap music vids I've downloaded from the net, but it won't recognise the ones I've ripped from my own music DVDs as VOBs. Any ideas?

Cheers,

Jed.

EDIT: - I should state that I'm using KVPlayer and my films and TV shows are VOBs and play fine through the Videos and MyTVSeries plugins.

Are the videos in a VIDEO_TS folder with the standard VTS... filenames? If so, this is something I'm working on adding support for. If they are actually named artist-album.vob, then you might want to make sure you've setup the extension "vob" in the videos section of MediaPortal's configuration. Also, currently it doesn't pickup a file if the extension is in uppercase but only configured in the MediaPortal video section as lowercase.

I've ripped the vids as .VOBs. Each video is a single file and are grouped and stored in their respective directories. For example:

N:\MyMusicVids\Girls Aloud\

and within the Girls Aloud folder I'll have:

Girls Aloud - Call the Shots.VOB
Girls Aloud - Biology.VOB
Girls Aloud - Jump.VOB

etc.

I've set up .VOB in the video extension screen and it works fine, as all my films are also .VOBs and they play fine ...

I'll check if it's set up as .VOB or .vob though .... I've got a feeling it's lower case ...

Well that didn't work

I had .vob in the list so also added .VOB but it still doesn't pick them up.

I'm assuming everyone else can get .VOBs working through this?

Hi - I'm still having trouble with this. I noticed that I had spaces between the hyphons, so I tried taking these out just in case, but that made no difference.

Any ideas?

Still struggling with this - any help would be greatly appreciated

Simply rename the .vob files in .mpg

This works for me !
