Reset default programs.

 

Note about Movie DVDs.

I setup Peach OSI to recognize when a Movie DVD is inserted and to automatically open the VLC Media Player.

In order to view a Movie, insert your Movie into your DVD player.

When the VLC Media Player starts up you will need to click on "Media" located at the top left.

Next from the pull down menu select "Open Directory".

Next click on the title of the Movie in the directory column on the left side.

Then click on the Movie's main folder and

then click on "Open" in the bottom right hand corner.

The DVD player will begin reading the Movie DVD and in a minute or so you should get the Movie's Menu Screen. From there you should be good to go.

I tried several ways and many applications attempting to simplify this process but this method was the only one that was fail safe.
