Some people don’t want to have a Divx copy of their DVDs on their hard drive. By converting the DVD you do lose quality and the special features of the DVD. With a simple registry hack you can get Vista MCE to recognize and play audio_ts and video_ts files. The will get you the full version of the DVD with all it’s extras. It will also take up a lot more space like 3 to 4 times as much space. But as cheap as hard drives are now I say fill them up.

Another way of doing this is through a program called My Movies 2. My Movies 2 just doesn’t allow you to play video_ts and audio_ts files it also gives you the Cover Art and all the information about the movie. It is free but they like donations. I’ll cover My Movies in more detail on a later post.
