How To Stream DVD to VLC

Hello,
I'm trying to stream DVDs with Subsonic. My DVD folders consist of the following structure:
Movie Name
|
|
AUDIO_TS (empty)
VIDEO_TS
|
|
VIDEO_TS.BUP
VIDEO_TS.IFO
VTS_01_0.BUP
VTS_01_0.IFO
VTS_01_0.VOB
...
more BUP, IFO, and VOB

The vob files contain the video that I want to stream. I would like to have Subsonic stream all VOB files (preferably in the correct order) to the JWPlayer. If this is not possible, then I would like to stream to VLC. I would like to stream starting at the top level folder (Movie Name) so that I don't have to play one vob at a time.

Here is my configuration:

Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8
Subsonic 4.6 (build 2585) – December 6, 2011
VLC Version 2.0.1 Twoflower (Intel 64bit)

.vob files were associated by selecting the file, choosing Get Info, and setting VLC as the file to use when opening.

I have created a vob -> flv transcoder that is activated in the player page. The transcoder is set as follows:
Name: vob/flv
Convert from: vob
Convert to: flv
Step 1: ffmpeg -ss %o -i %s -b %bk -s %wx%h -ar 44100 -ac 2 -v 0 -f flv -


Thanks,
Lem

The only way to do it currently would be to build and save a playlist for each folder of vob's. Subsonic does not currently have the ability to read the disc structure from the IFO files.

Sorry,

Glenn
