mplayer problem

(1/3) > >>

Siplus:
i'm trying to watch a dvd on my rh9 box, but mplayer can't find the dvd! i have a cdrom (24x, cdrom) and a cdrw/dvd (speeds don't really matter, cdrom1), but when i open mplayer (gmplayer) and try to open the dvd, it says there's no medium in /dev/cdrom. i know there is no medium in /dev/cdrom, it's in /dev/cdrom1! so how to i tell mplayer that?

jtpenrod:
Do you have /dev/cdrom1 in your /etc/fstab file?

Siplus:

(first time i heard of the file, but ya, i have both cdroms in it)

Try Xine, it always works for me when others fail.

billy_gates:
I found that Ogle works the best for DVD's.  I have never been able to get Xine to actually play one, sometimes I get to the menu, sometimes nothing.  I don't know where to get ogle, I got it with apt-get and synaptic.  I heard that it is technically illegal, but big deal.
