<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Jason... did you ever find anything about this? I'm having
the same problem... I tried everything and was able to view some of the .vro
file using some editing software, but I got to a point where the movie was split
into 2 screens running side by side... I assume this was because I changed the
recording format (from extra fine to fine)... I would appreciate hearing how you
handled this... Thanks in advance... Shane Freed</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Hi,<BR><BR>I have a Hitachi DZMV230A camcorder, which
records on 70mm dvd-r and<BR>double sided dvd-ram disks. What I'm trying
to accomplish is to make svcds <BR>of the dvd-ram disks, which stores in a .vro
file instead of a .vob. The<BR>reason for this, from what I've read, is
that .vob files can only be<BR>1G, where this .vro file contains all the tracks
in a single file. The<BR>.ifo file keeps track of where the tracks
start/stop in the .vro file.<BR><BR>For a short while I had checked my soul at
the door an ran XP, and if I<BR>just renamed the .vro file to a .vob, I was able
to make an svcd, but<BR>there wasn't any track info, just one solid movie.
I've only been able<BR>to find one commercial program that reads the .vro files
correctly, but<BR>it looks to be playback only.<BR><BR>Now that I'm done
rambling, my question is can mplayer (or I guess<BR>libdvdread) decifer these
.ifo/.vro files? Google doesn't turn up much<BR>for vro files, except
other "hey, what can I do" posts. I can't upload <BR>anything at the
moment, as I'm still figuring out how to make the thing <BR>work over USB at the
moment. Once I got that working, I can record a<BR>short time, with
several starts and stops (that's how it does tracks,<BR>each time the record is
stopped/started) if anyone wants to take a
look.<BR><BR>Thanks....<BR><BR>--Jason<BR><BR> Our Cabbage Who Art
