DVD playing is not supported in OS X on a Wallstreet, precisely because of the decoder card that is not supported. Apple felt they had to put their time and resources somewhere else or they were a little lazy so they decided they wouldn't support it. Now, I think I've seen, back when OS X was released and I was still using a Wallstreet, a few hacks that would describe how to install the DVD player and maybe how to play DVDs using software decoding, but that was a long time ago, so I might be wrong... -Laurent. -- ============================================================================ Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat: LaurentDaudelin <http://nemesys.dyndns.org> Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] featurectomy /fee`ch*r-ek't*-mee/ n.: The act of removing a feature from a program. Featurectomies come in two flavors, the `righteous' and the `reluctant'. Righteous featurectomies are performed because the remover believes the program would be more elegant without the feature, or there is already an equivalent and better way to achieve the same end. (Doing so is not quite the same thing as removing a misfeature.) Reluctant featurectomies are performed to satisfy some external constraint such as code size or execution speed. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
