I already have the VLC player and tried without success changing the extensions to .mpg and .avi. I also tried RealPlayer and Quick time player on the outside chance that one may have worked. I found that one of my .dvd projects was a slide show with titles added.
Laos is a one-party socialist republic. It espouses Marxism and is governed by the Lao People's Revolutionary Party, in which the party leadership is dominated by military figures. The Socialist Republic of Vietnam and the Vietnam People's Army continue to have significant influence in Laos. The capital city is Vientiane.
Ethnic groups and languages. Laos is an ethnically and linguistically diverse country. The official language of Laos is Lao, although various foreign languages have often been used by the elite. French was once the language of the Lao upper classes and of the cities, but by the 1970s English had begun to displace it.
