When this started happening (don't remember exactly, but I seem to recall somewhere soon after 2.0 or so) I did convince myself that I was doing some mistake somewhere, but your report points to some more general issue (still unknown to me, though) > For local videos, vlc works adequately [ albeit the sound is often > too loud ;-) ] Same: I can add that downloading a dvd onto disk (w/dvdbackup) and playing it w/ vlc works fine: this makes me think that the problem is in the handling of the physical dvd drive itself. My 5 cents: after vlc started misbehaving, I switched to mplayer which, AFAICS, works just fine for me ciao gabriele -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
