Cant open ripped IFO files in PowerDVD 4.0 XP

[Randm_Task]

When I select Open DVD file on Hard Disk Drive, then select the IFO file I want to open for a chapter I ripped, then click OK, nothing happens! If I press play it will just default to the last played clip or the DVD in the drive.

Anyone know how to fix this ?

I try to just open the VOB directly, which works fine, but it wont allow me to change audio streams or access subtitles.

cheers

PowerDVD 4 does not load IFO files. It only reads the info that is already encoded in the DVD files. Open the files in ifoedit instead and use the DVD Play button to preview your ripped movies.

I dont want to preview it, I want to watch it.

When you select the Open DVD Files on Hard Drive option it asks you to select an IFO file, and not a VOB, which would seem to indicate it does read IFO files

And why when I load up the *.VOB into PowerDVD can I not change Audio streams and subtitles like I can if it were still on the DVD ?
