My brother and i have purchased the P90X workout dvds and i am trying to figure out how to watch them in Plex. I have ripped each dvd to its own folder and have the video ts folders inside of each corresponding folder. if i place the folders in the TV section of my hard drive it shows up, but it is showing 0 episodes. if i put the folder in my movie section i get some scrapping for a movie from 1942. the folder structure is as follows
tv
-P90X
-Disc 01 - How to Bring It
-Video TS
.vob files
it is the same layout for the movies folder also.
can anyone suggests how i can get this to work properly. i am leaving for a business trip in a couple of days and wanted to be able to do this workout while in my hotel room

yes, i can navigate within the videos folder and find it. I looked up the tvdb website and found it there. i am currently having handbrake encode one of the video ts folders into a avi file and renaming it according to what is on the tvdb website. i will post my findings when it is done.

For individual episodes you can just use something like Mac the Ripper's Chapter Extraction mode to extract each episode into its own .VOB file. It most likely will not work to just rename the .VOB files because DVD manufacturers break up the .VOB files into 1GB segments. You could have episodes that span the .VOB files.
Video_TS folders themselves do not work very well with episodes right now so I suggest going with the .VOB method and not waste your time re-encoding material.

I'm in the same boat. I'm getting my new 72 inch tv today and just set up my new mac mini. I'm wanting to have P90X on the Mac Mini so I can go from one chapter to the next since sometimes, I'll skip a specific exercise. I suppose I could just use the DVD player on the mac mini to do this but through Plex would be cooler.

Chapters just depend on the chapter markers track in the video file. If you rip the chapter markers then you can use them in Plex just as you would with a DVD player.
