[X4U] No video - update

[Paul Moortgat]

After a few restarts with MPEG Streamclip I got a notice that I missed  
the MPEG-2 plug-in from Apple.
I used the link provided which brought me at the US site.  At the  
Belgian site I could buy the plug-in and now it's running.
Thanks Nick.

Can't open the file either.  I made a DVD-RW for my sister from a VHS  
tape.  After it I found out that I used that DVD earlier for a test  
and it had a 2 minute file in front of the sister video part.  Instead  
making a new DVD (I had assumed that I hadn't a DVD disk that's why I  
used a DVD-RW) which I got later on, I tried to fix it on the Mac and  
burn a real DVD via Toast.  I've a Mac after all Isn't it?  That DVD- 
RW will play on the Sony home recorder, but not on the Mac Pro (10.5.8)

Only VLC will open de VRO file.  The 3 files found on the DVD-RW are:
VR_MANGR.BUP
VR_MANGR.IFO
VR_MOVIE.VRO
