I had a company convert 8mm films to DVD. I was provided 2 DVDs that
contain IFO, BUP & VOB files. The VOB files are 1, 048,018KB each and
there are (6) of them. All files are located in a TS_Video folder. The
DVDs play in Windows Media Player. However I need to play them in Roxio
Easy Media Creator 8 and extract portions of each VOB file that can be
part of a slideshow that has regular photos too. There is no audio with
these files.

1. What are the files that I received, ie what is an IFO file, etc???
2. I have read that you can change the VOB filetype to an AVI then play
it. Is that all I have to do?
3. Is there another software package to do the conversion before
editing in Roxio??


Thanks!
