Author How to read an IFO file ?

Hello,

I'm looking for a Perl module which is able to read the structure of an
IFO file (from a video DVD).

I did not find anything on CPAN.

Does somebody know such a module ?

Thanks.

Is it safe to assume MPEG::LibMPEG3 won't do it for you?

Is it also safe to assume you found
http://dvd.sourceforge.net/dvdinfo/ifo.html ? Seems like this task is
more suited to C though. A nice XS module maybe? ;p

This library is good for getting information about the MPEG stream, but
I want to extract the index of the chapters from the .IFO file, and
MPEG::LibMPEG3 doesn't work for that.

It's a solution, but I would prefer an existing module :)
