I have a sony mini dvd handy cam. I am trying to view the mini dvd on my mac book pro via a external dvd burner. I thought this would work fine. ..........I cannot find any programs that will read the files!!! I know that it must be possible!

I would download VLC (VideoLAN - Free Software and Open Source video streaming solution for every OS!) and/or MPlayer (Entering MPlayer homepage)

If they can't play it then I doubt anything else will.

Mmm .. .weird .. as far as I know it uses the H.264 codec and quicktime 7 should support it :

Apple - QuickTime - Technologies - H.264

(if your Sony records in HD)

I have quicktime " pro" and was also suprised that it would not read it. I download the VIC software. As soon as i would select the file to be opened it would " unexpectadly close the application". I can open the dvd in the finder and it is a " Unix Executable File" . . . . VR_MOVIE_VRO

Is this disc playable in a standard DVD player?
Doesn't seem like its using a conventional VIDEO_TS file.
