Not a bug. You've not told xine-lib that it's a DVD image, and it can't automatically detect this. I don't think that we can sensibly add UDF auto-detection at library level without fiddling with the file plugin (which is what you're actually trying to use); and if we do this for DVD images, why not for VCD images too? Various kinds of device node? (This is probably "wontfix" territory, but it needs a little discussion, I think.) Anyway, you need "dvd://path/to/dvd.iso", with full URL escaping; or you could add some some filename-based detection in the front end (as I've already done for gxine in experimental). -- | Darren Salt | linux or ds at | nr.
