If I open the application, I then get a > button. If I press that, I ger an opportunity to browse my PC. If I select the DVD drive, I can see the disk and an audio_ts and video_ts folders.
If I go into video_ts, which file do I want?0 -
Power DVD comes up with an error sometimes telling me the disc is region 2 and the setting on the software is "non-specific". I thought that mearn't region free and should therefore play a region 2 disc.0

I did load VLC player but it opens up the folder structure on the disc and I didn't know what file to play. I did try with it.0
