Re: VIDEO_TS Movie Problem / Movie Library

This posting is older than 6 months and can contain outdated information.
Hey,

thank you for your reply...

There is a known bug in VLC, though, where it *might* not work 
correctly with VIDEO_TS directories, if they are located in a disk 
image (dmg / sparseimage / FileVault). The same is probably true if 
you burned the movies on a CD/DVD and try to play it back from there.

DVD Player - on my MacBook Pro - will quit with an error message when 
I try to play back regular DVDs, if I'm inside an account that's 
FileVault-encrypted. Creating a new account that doesn't use FileVault 
did then let me play back my DVDs without problems.

Having said that: where did you store the movie files?

 
It seems you are pointing to the right direction. Yes, I am using FileVault and that is probably the cause.

A quick search did not reveal anything about this problem (searched for "vlc filevault"). Do you know any workaround or if the developpers fix this it?

Best wishes!
