Re: Recording Video - Transferring to Portable Player

My daughter just got a Phillips 4GB "GoGear" Flash Audio/Video Player. The manual says that the player can play WMV videos.

All she's wanting, is to record a one hour show like "American Idol" on to a DVD, via our DVD player/recorder connected to the cable, and then transfer it to her player so she can watch it later. I know it will require some format manipulation, but I guess my main question has to do with the recorded DVD.

Once I insert the recorded DVD into the computer, and I access the actual files on the DVD, there are two folders: one named "VIDEO_RM", which contain some IFO files, a DAT file, and a BUP file.

The second folder is named "VIDEO_TS", and it contains a BUP file, a IFO file, and a MPEG file.

What files do I need to work with? I am assuming the MPEG file has to be converted to a WMV file?
