Were you able to get Xine working? I keep getting errors that there is no plugin for encoded DVDs and Xine just quits for me, Suse 8.0? Babu --- John Pettigrew <john@xl-cambridge.com> wrote:
I've been trying to play DVDs on my SuSE 8.1 box with only partial success. Using either MPlayer or Xine, I can play DVDs but the playback is very jerky. Playing DVDs on the same box (Athlon 1.2 GHz, GeForce2 MX/400) under Windows is smooth, so there is definitely some improvement possible.
One possibility that occurred to me is DMA settings for the DVD drive. However, under SuSE 8.1, it's running as SCSI emulation. How do I check whether DMA is enabled - there's no listing under the DMA tool for the emulated drives.
What else should I look at, or do I resign myself to not watching DVDs under Linux?
