Could you elaborate on output drivers? I'm in the midst of a reinstall so don't have VLC or the docs installed. I haven't tried mplayer. Also, I don't actually own any DVDs. The Sound of Music was borrowed from family from out-of-town over the Christmas holidays. I do know that at the time I fiddled with all of VLC's options.
