Hello,
Do you know how to convert an IFO file (from a Sony miniDVD) to an AVI file (or another format) to be compatible with Movie Maker?
Thank you
See you soon

An IFO file contains only information (titles, chapters, subtitles, etc.). However, the video(s) is(are) located in the VOB files.
For more details see DVD: www.gypsevideo.fr

Hello,
It's true that the IFO file is of no use to me, however the video is not a VOB file but a VRO and my video converter does not recognize it.
That said, I found the following solution to work with Movie Maker.
1) Copy the .VRO file to the hard drive from the PC explorer (fetch it from the miniDVD)
2) Change the extension from ".VRO" to ".AVI" = at this point it is still not compatible with Movie Maker
3) Convert this new .AVI file with Free Video Converter into a new AVI file (but with more common codecs) = now it is compatible with Movie Maker
Note: there is some loss of quality.
P.S.: I find that with Sony there are always compatibility issues.
See you!

Hello,
Small correction after checking the link from the previous post:
the VRO files come from the fact that the camcorder records on a DVD RAM and not from Sony.
The proposed solution seems quite cumbersome, but it works.
That said, it would be reasonable for manufacturers to provide software to recover videos since DVDRAM is becoming increasingly common.
See you!

A standard DVD contains VOB files. However, some DVDs, particularly DVD RAMs, contain VOR files.
