DVD .ifo, .bup, .vob files

I a movie torrent. There are a total of 12 files, in sets of three containing a .ifo, .bup, .vob file. So basically it is chapters 1-4 w/ each of these different extensions. I have no idea where to even begin. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Souns like a strange torrent to me, not to seed the iso instead of the files. But you should be able to play the .vob files in any decent mediaplayer (like windvd).

VOB = Video OBject

i'm trying in windows media player right now and nothing. I've been doing some reading on web and i'm told if i play the video_ts.ifo it will play the dvd. it said the vob files were the actual video, and the other ones had to do w/ chapters, menus and such. i'm about to try finding a new video player and see if it works.

It will not work in windows media player by default.

Yes, sir you are right. Try mediaplayer classic for instance it plays them smoothly.
