Andrew, Thanks very much for replying to my email. I appreciate it. I think what really matters is the permissions on /dev/cdrom or /dev/hdc depending on how you're set up. check those. they should be root:cdrom. Also, what mechanism are you using for mounting these disks? You may have to

Hello all, I'm sure there is a simple solution to this problem but I'm not quite sure how to fix it. Bascially, I can't play DVD's unless I'm running as root - i.e. mplayer only plays if I'm root, but xine refuses to play at all. Someone suggested that my user wasn't part of the group cdrom
