Re:[SLE] problem w/DVD movies in Linux
Josh,
I have a measly PIII 450 and a Pioneer DVD drive (though mine is SCSI) and ogle
works for me. I followed their steps precisely from the bottom of
http://www.dtek.chalmers.se/groups/dvd/downloads.shtml to compile it from source
though, the RPM's did not seem to work, or I biffed it.
Yesterday I watched The Phantom Menace with it, worked great, menus and all.
(Though I think the Episode II preview stuff is only available on Windohs, but
that's another rant...)
Good luck,
The other Josh.

I'm running SuSE 7.2 Personal, Nvidia TNT2 M64 with Nvidia's hardware drivers and a 1.7GHZ P4 with an IDE 16x DVD-ROM drive from Pioneer. Despite all of that hardware, which makes the "gear" benchmark and other programs scream, when I run Ogle to view an encrypted DVD movie (yes I got it legally, from a video rental place - no flames please.) it playes very jerkily. Xine wouldn't play it at all; I assume because of encryption. A WinXP program that playes DVDs manages to play it perfectly well. How do I tweak SuSE / get a better program / whatever in order for DVDs to play?
Maybe the X-Video isn't set up right. What does 'xvinfo' tell you?

That's good! X-Video looks like it's correctly set up on your box. Your problem lies elsewhere. Try a different DVD player - Videolan is second best choice (that I know of) when Ogle lets you down.
