what is the startup file for a blu-ray?

[maca]

Just curious, can anyone tell me which file on a blu-ray serves the same purpose as the VIDEO_TS.IFO on a DVD, meaning the file that starts by default when a disc is inserted to load up the disc?

I don't know if it lists exactly what you are asking for but this is from the "what is bluray" link on the upper left of this website.

Thanks, didn't notice to click there. I'm still not certain which is the file I'm looking for, guess I'll have to experiment.

The VIDEO_TS is to DVD what the BDMV is to Blu Ray
