Don't think that it is quite that easy as I've stores the DVDs as iso

would configure freevo to do this.
mplayer can probably do this. It seems to be able to do most things :)
At least with a patch it can use the ivtv as output device:
http://ivtvdriver.org/viewcvs/ivtv/trunk/misc/MPlayer-1.0pre7try2-ivtvosd.diff?rev=2767&view=markup
It may as well be able to play .iso's directly, IIRC.
Did an update of this patch for the MPlayer CVS version but the problem
here is that the audio is well out of sync.
Although I think a VOB file is supposed to be a valid mpeg2 file as
well. Anyone know?
Yes, AFAIK, it's a PS ("program stream") file, which means that it's composed
of elementary (audio/video/subtitle/...) streams. That's my understanding
and I am probably neglecting some details.. ;-)
This is quite correct, a VOB is multiplexed mpeg streams, audio streams
and subtitles. Even menus are mpeg streams and menu highlights are
subtitle streams. Subtitles are four colour bitmaps or something like that.
Haven't found much under Linux that can manipulate VOB files but there
are quite a few Windows programs.
