Keep in mind, DVD viewing is NOT free or open source with the evil OS, you have to have a commercial viewer, either one that came with the drive or a 3rd party one. CSS is proprietary and the open source versions available for Linux are illegal to use in the US. On the evil OS, you need a DVD viewing program that supports decrypting CSS for almost all DVD's. You probably should be able to find a package out and about on the net, not that I am suggesting that you violate any licenses or anything. ;-} -- Bryan Phinney Software Test Engineer
