    Playing DVD


    Hello,
    Recently downloaded a whole movie, it is MP4 format. Since this cannot be played on home dvd player, had to convert it into AVI , in user manual it says AVI can be played - but it did not. So then I converted it into VOB format, but again dvd refused to play it. Finaly had to use a dvd authoring program, wasted some hours to work on it and finally got my dvd with menus playing.
    My question: Since all files in the dvd folder are vob, why the one vob I made on the first time did no play.
    The converstion done with "format factory".
    Some answers will be appreciated
    Thanks


    :)

    DVD player won't play a DVD that it played many tmes before

    It's fairly simple. If the DVD plays in a different DVD player, and other DVDs don't play in the PC, there's something wrong with the hardware. On the other hand, if the DVD doesn't play in other DVD players and other DVDs play OK in the PC, there's
    something wrong with the disc.

    Windows 10 Fall Creators Update

    So, the Fall Creators Update has been released yesterday, but I haven't even been prompted for the Creators Update yet. My pc is not that old, bought it last summer. I have no idea as to why I'm still running version 1607 or wether it's safe for me to upgrade
    to either one of these newer versions. Will it screw up my drivers if I do? I am running Windows 10 Pro btw.

    Any input would be appreciated.

    Just one .vob file is not up to DVD play back specs. That's why you had to use a authoring program.
