Thanks for the suggestion. I jumped into YaST and looked at DMA and noted that the dvd drive had DMA turned off so I elected to go with "UltraDMA/33".

You definitely want DMA on, regardless. This will help all your applications and not just mplayer.
Fish, or anyone with knowledge: My settings in the IDE DMA setup screen are as follows. Are these correct? Any changes needed? Current DMA mode Device name Type Device Required DMA mode UltraDMA/100 WD400EB-00CPF0 Disk /dev/hda No change UltraDMA/33 DVDRW LDW-811S CD-Rom /dev/hdc UltraDMA/33 Thx, Gurus! ;o) Gil
