A client of mine handed me a DVD containing an AUDIO_TS folder and a VIDEO_TS folder. &nbsp;The AUDIO_TS folder is empty but VIDEO_TS folder contains BUP, IFO, and VOB files. &nbsp;The BUP and IFO files are in the 10 - 20 kB range. &nbsp;The VOB files are in the 100 - 300 MB range. &nbsp;I downloaded an MPEG-2 codec and now I can play the VOB files using Windows Media Player (v11). &nbsp;Unfortunately, all I'm getting is audio (Motown songs). &nbsp;The client assures me the files should include video as well. &nbsp;Suggestions?<br />

Digital audio is technology that can be used to record, store, generate, manipulate, and reproduce sound using audio signals encoded in digital form. Following significant advances in technology, digital rapidly replaced analog audio technology in most areas. Digital audio systems may include compression, storage, processing and transmission components. It is important to distinguish between the audio coding format, the codec performing the encoding and decoding of the raw audio data, and the container file. Common file formats include .wav, .aiff, .au, .m4a, .mp3, .wma, .ra and .raw.
