Mandrake version in contrib doesn't work.  I use 
complete_xine_0.3.7_i686.rpm.  Can't remember where I downloaded it from, 
but it could have been http://sourceforge.net/projects/xine.

Oh NO!
Still it doesn't work with mandrake. I've been told that it works with Suse 
and Slackware if you hack it with a plugin that you can find at:

http://members.nbci.com/_XMCM/captain_css

But I could not realize a good work: it start playing, but the program 
usually crashes reporting "skipping frame xxx" for many times, or 
sometimes it crashes after few hugly frames...  ;°°°(
Anyone know something about it?!

nope just need to 'ln -s /dev/cdrom /dev/dvd'

I didn't do anything special with my kernel.

No; when you use vlc, click on the button that says 'disc' and by default it
will look for /dev/dvd - just change that to /dev/cdrom (whereas /dev/cdrom
equals the dvd drive in question) and it will work (just did it last night).

PMJI, but (for me education, please? ). Cooker (beta 3) installed
my
IDE DVD drive as /dev/cdrom. Does this mean that I should change my
fstab to /dev/dvd? Does the current kernel recognise DVD drives as such
or is one obliged to either run linuxconf, or manually edit fstab?

TIA,

I think it mentions where to get all the stuff on xine webpage - I didn't use 
RPM's for xine, usually the only RPM's I ever use are those provided by the 
distro I use, after that I compile myself.

A couple things for xine

first the DVD drive has to be /dev/dvd which would be a link to the /dev/hda 
or /dev/scd0 or whatever drive you are using.

second - did you compile and install libcss?

Best place to start would be LiViD  
(The Linux Video and DVD Project)
http://www.linuxvideo.org/. check out the "resources" link.
This should point you in the right direction...

... as data, then use Xmovie with the DVD plugin, or
another player (Cf. LiViD).

you can use VideoLan or vlc in contribs : vlc-0.2.71-1mdk
for legal issues the package does not contain any deCSS code..
look at www.videolan.org if you want have it :)

Yes, xine.  Mount your dvd just like a data cd; start xine and right-click 
in the xine video output window to show/hide the controller;  click "DVD" 
on the controller and press the start button.  Enjoy!

Hi all!
I would like to test cooker with dvd.
Well, I bought a dvd player, mounted it (it's hdd), it works fine as a normal 
cd-rom. Now I got even a film but I know nothing about making it work!!!
I'd like to know:
-Is there a program which I can use to see dvd?
-How do I have to use it?
-Must the dvd be mounted like a data cd or not, like an audio-cd?
