This is working for me.

 mplayer -vo x11 -fs dvd://1 -dvd-device /dev/dvd

Now, need to figure out sound :)

Not sure how you tell what version the ivtvdev_drv.o you are using. This is actually a knoppmyth setup so it has whatever they packaged with Alpha16. I kinda gave up on xine, and decided use mplayer which does not look choppy at all. Using the command line:

 mplayer -vo xv -fs dvd://1 -dvd-device /dev/dvd

This works fine when I have my DISPLAY set to my SUSE box, but when the display is the PVR-350 it does not play at all. Selecting dvd play in myth makes the dvd rom light blink a few times but it never plays. I am still playing with this to see if I can get it to work reliably from myth.

I have a P4 with two PVR-350 cards in it. I have my DVD burner on IDE2. There are no other drives on IDE2. When I play a DVD with xine via mythtv it is very choppy. I am using the hardware out on the PVR-350 card as well as the sound out on it. I really have two problems.

1) choppy video
2) no sound

I have a feeling that the sound issue is probably easily solved by taking the sound card out and putting it into my receiver. I am more concerned with the choppy video out of the DVD player. I saw a post that mentioned setting "-xxmc" on the xine command line. Anything else I should check/set?


Make sure you're using the 0.10.6 version of the ivtvdev driver in you X setup, use the xv driver with xine ('xine -V xv'), and do a 'ivtvctl --set-yuv-mode=mode=1' prior to watching a DVD ( I set this during boot and leave it that way all the time). With that combination I get DVD playback that is mostly indistinguishable from the real thing.
