    hi

    thats odd? did you reboot? and you dont have them in a torrent folder or a download folder do you? move the main movie to C:\movie\etc

    you need to get the main movie files vob/ifo

    usally this is all you need, get rid of rest

    VTS_01_0.IFO
    VTS_01_1.VOB
    VTS_01_2.VOB
    VTS_01_3.VOB
    VTS_01_4.VOB
    VTS_01_5.VOB

    Most el cheapo DVD players sold in Australia are NTSC/Pal compatible.

    On the remote control there is usually a P/N button.

    Press this and ala B&W changes to colour.

    No need for any conversion.

    i didnt use any standalone player.I played it on my Ps2 and i think that this B&W problem had to do something with the cables o sth. I just burned it with dvd decrypter....i dont remember how big it was but it fitted on one dvd...so i think something like 4.6 or 4.5Gb
