Having Problems Playing .VOB Files WMC

[PolygonGTC]

I have Win7 on my HTPC and I am trying to rip my DVD collection to my other computer, which is also running Win7. I am using DVD Decrypter to rip the main movie to a .VOB file. However, when I try to play it WMC says it can't access the file and that it's in use but it's not. This is the first movie I have tried to rip this way. Everything else is encoded and is working fine.

I thought that VOB support was native in Win7 MC. Am I missing something? Help me out here.

Support is native. Are you trying to play it through the Video gallery rather than the movie gallery?

 

[PolygonGTC]

Nope, I'm trying to play it through Media Browser.

Do they play through the regular MC Movie gallery?

 

[PolygonGTC]

Yep, just gave it a shot and they work through the regular movie gallery but they look like crap.

? DVDs aren't exactly HD. They don't look that great.

I think we're on the same track here. Under the misdirection of someone else I installed the Shark 007 codec pack. I'm installing CCleaner right now to remove the damn thing. I think the issue is with a codec as they look like a DVD when I'm playing them on my main computer but look like crap on the HTPC, and I don't think it's the TV either. Just removed it and it still looks the same. Perhaps I need to try a reboot.

EDIT: Just installed MPC Home Cinema and it looks like it should. So, there's something up in Media Center that makes it looks like crap. Any idea?

Still, they don't look this bad. It's very odd. Fast moving objects look almost like they're cell shaded.
