This is news to me, I've read countless times that IFO files are used
to skirt round corrupted sectors, hence why hardware players/dvdnav
can play back ARccOS discs. If this is wrong then I don't know where
it came from. Just yesterday in fact I was reading a post by one of
the Handbrake devs speaking about the exact same thing.
