Dear Scott,
I can mount .iso filetype dvd's very well. That is NOT the
issue. What I have is that I have downloaded dvd video files and I
want to use that as a virtual drive (like Daemon tools or others do
for windows ).
This are the contents of the video DVD :-
/VIDEO_TS$ ls
VIDEO_TS.BUP VTS_01_1.VOB VTS_03_0.IFO VTS_05_0.BUP VTS_06_1.VOB
VTS_08_0.IFO VTS_10_0.BUP
VIDEO_TS.IFO VTS_02_0.BUP VTS_03_1.VOB VTS_05_0.IFO VTS_07_0.BUP
VTS_08_1.VOB VTS_10_0.IFO
VIDEO_TS.VOB VTS_02_0.IFO VTS_04_0.BUP VTS_05_1.VOB VTS_07_0.IFO
VTS_09_0.BUP VTS_10_1.VOB
VTS_01_0.BUP VTS_02_1.VOB VTS_04_0.IFO VTS_06_0.BUP VTS_07_1.VOB
VTS_09_0.IFO
VTS_01_0.IFO VTS_03_0.BUP VTS_04_1.VOB VTS_06_0.IFO VTS_08_0.BUP

My question is simply this -
Let's say the movie is my_super_movie which has a folder VIDEO_TS
which is in Downloads :-
So if I do :-
$ sudo mount -o loop ~/Downloads/my_super_movie/VIDEO_TS/* /mnt/dvd
and then do :-
$ vlc dvd:///mnt/dvd
Is this good enough or need something more. ?
Btw my /etc/sudoers does have my user as access after giving the root password.
Looking forward for clarity .
