Thanks, Patrick. That was all it took, and I have a DVD playing now.
I neglected to mention that you need to have the vlc repo configured or you will get the crippled (digital-wrongs-manipulation) version that openSUSE has to ship due to local laws.
gud luk,
The VLC repo is present: <http://download.videolan.org/pub/vlc/SuSE/11.4/> Is that as it should be? Tomorrow I will try to search Google for what is crippled on this version. If someone knows, and could steer me, that would save me time and trouble (I had a heart attack and double bypass in December, and my time/day is shorter now in my recuperation phase). I did find some apparent bugs. For example, an attempt to fast-forward (or backward) causes the sound to disappear, although the audio settings remain as before and the speaker icon does not show that audio is muted; I have not found a way to restore the sound, short of quiting and reloading VLC. -- Stan Goodman Qiryat Tiv'on Israel -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
