ffmpegX does not recognise directories as valid files

[Sector A]

I have installed all the files and packages for ffmpegX. When I try and point it to a directory on my hard drive (a folder with some .vob files in it...) It says it cannot read from DVD and I should try and open files from disk insetad. But that's what I am doing so that has me a bit puzzled.

What can I try and fix to get this to work?

Thanks in advance!

Could you please copy and paste here the contents of your "Open.." field?

The message I am getting is:

To comply with copyright laws, DVD Device input is not allowed. Please select a file or folder from your HD

I tried pointing to either a VIDEO_TS folder or a single .vob file (and I removed the actual DVD from my drive so nothing is there anymore...) but all give me the same message.

I was not asking about the error message, but about the contents of your "Open" field. Please copy and paste it to me.

I have included (hopefully...) a link to my open dialog shot.

Create a "Movies" folder and put your VIDEO_TS folder inside.
