Problem with writing a DL .iso file

[ArtVandalay7]

I have a folder of .bup, .ifo, and .vob files from which I am trying to write an .iso file to the hard drive. I go through all the steps as usual and the log indicates the process was successful, yet I can't open the .iso file with either Windows Media Player or VLC media player. The individual files play fine on both players, however. Attempting to play the created .iso files on VLC player actually cause it to freeze up and necessitate shutting down the player using the task manager...any ideas as to what's wrong and how to fix it? Thanks!! Log...

ISO is a container and I think that WMP can't handle .iso files natively, but VLC should play it.

 

Install Virtual CloneDrive and mount the .iso in it.

Thanks for the reply...tried to install Virtual CloneDrive...can't open the .iso file that way either...

You have to 'mount' it in the virtual drive.

 

The play from the virtual drive as if you'd inserted a real disc in a normal DVD drive.

Ah, gotcha...going to the virtual drive and playing worked...thanks! Only problem is my main reason for writing the data to an .iso file is so that I can transfer it onto my media center where I have other .iso files stored...Since I recall the other .iso files played as is, I'm expecting this one not to work on the media center?...

[LIGHTNING UK!]

What media center do you have?

 

If it can play DVD Video ISO files properly (i.e. with full menus etc) then it should be fine.

 

If it's a bodge effort where it semi scans/looks for something that resembles a video stream then maybe it won't.

I softmodded an Xbox (running XBMC). I have movies stored as .iso files on an external hard drive which the media player plays fine (with menus, etc.)...but these .iso files have run on my laptop as well (which this one won't)...
