Why do you think I crossposted in the first place? I haven't a clue which
is best, so I posted as I did
It's often difficult to figure out when you're new to this. Don't worry,
in a year or so, you'll flame the ones who make the mistakes. :)

Ah, Ok, it looks like you have a directory with VOB files in it. That's a
different thing.
If the directory containing said VIDEO_TS file is called mymovie then, in
the directory where you have the mymovie directory, you would do
mplayer -dvd-device ./mymovie dvd://
See if that works.
(Otherwise, you can use vlc and choose open directory, but I haven't done
that in awhile, so don't remember the details.
