Subject: Re: Playing DVDs on a Wallstreet running OSX

The Lombard and the Wallstreet were both able to play DVDs under OS 9  
by virtue of a DVD decoder chipset, in the form of a ZiVA DVD decoder  
built into the MLB in some Lombard models, or supplied in a ZV-enabled  
PCMCIA card along with the Wallstreet's DVD drive (or as part of an  
Apple Store BTO option). However, these extra DVD decoder chipsets are  
not supported by OS X.
----------------------------------------------------

Mplayer (at least the Linux version) has support for the Creative DXR2
which is based on the ZiVA decoder.  You could try it.  I don't have a
Wallstreet or I would try it myself.
