Hi David, >I got my daughter a one of the Sony DVD camcorders for Christmas. It records onto 1.4gb discs which will hold about 30 minutes. > >I can pop the dvd into my notebook and Windows Media player will pop up and display the selection menu and play the segments. But I copied the dvd to my hard drive, double clicked one of the .vob files and WMP just sits there displaying a black screen. Any ideas why it won't play it from the hard drive? WinDVD which shipped with the computer will play from both the dvd drive and the hard drive. > >Also has anybody got recommendations for software that will allow editting of the video segments for burning to the fullsize dvd?
