mplayer does equally well theses days with the newer Sony DVDs. However, you will need the svn version of mplayer linked against the svn version of dvdnav from the mplayer site. I am not too sure if Packman have caught up yet.
I used to use Fedora 8 and the mplayer builds from livna, atrpms, and freshrpms.net all were configured as you suggest. In that case it was a simple matter of specifying dvdnav://x instead of dvd://x to play the Sony DVDs. Sadly the Packman mplayer RPMs specifically (according to the change log) disabled the use of dvdnav. I have simply found it easier to use vlc to play them than to grab the svn and build myself (lazy ;-) ). -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
