The only time I can play media (as opposed to access data) is when the CDROM/DVD is NOT mounted. The otherway round for reading data. -- Regards, Mick Lycos email has now 300 Megabytes of free storage... Get it now at mail.lycos.co.uk

Stupid question: is the device mounted when you try to run the movie in Xine, or was it expected to/did it in the past automount somehow? What happens if you mount the drive manually in a terminal and then (assuming it mounts) run Xine? I only ask since the device permissions seem correct, and I assume that Xine is set to the correct device (/dev/dvd, in this case, which presumes that your reader is correct at /dev/hdc). And if the device is correct, and the settings of the program is correct, the only time I see such errors as those (not in Xine, but in a file manager or the like), is when the device is not mounted (despite media being in the drive), so the files on the media are not readable by the program.

Ehm, I got the same error messages a few days ago... but... the error was on my side: I put my DVD into /dev/hdd instead of /dev/hdc ;-) Sergio, a bit ashamed ;-) -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
[gentoo-user] xine cannot find /dev/hdc
After a recent emerge -uDv system, which upgraded xine-lib, I cannot use xine to watch dvds anymore. It cannot find /dev/hdc. The output from running xine from the console is at http://rafb.net/paste/results/ac0MJP75.html. I've tried downgrading and re-emerging to no avail. I'm wondering if this is related somehow to udev, but I don't know where to look for that. Any advice appreciated. Thanks. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
