Along with the other answers posted you can use mplayer like this: mplayer dvd://1 -dvd-device /srv/videos/disk_image_directory Can also play the menus from it using the dvdnav://// with a lot of slashes like this: mplayer dvdnav:////srv/videos/disk_image_directory And of course if you can play it then you can use dumpstream to extract the video to a file. Also you can play the .vob files directly. Let's assume that track four contains the main video stream: mplayer /srv/videos/dvd_image_directory/VIDEO_TS/VTS_04_*.VOB Also it seems that vlc is perfectly happy with the directory but for me I have found that I need to ensure that there is a trailing slash on the end. This may be causing some confusion when trying to use it to play a directory. Does not work: vlc /srv/videos/dvd_image_directory Works with a trailing slash: vlc /srv/videos/dvd_image_directory/ Bob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
