Hi there, I'm still trying to get dvd's to play in Debian. Has anyone of you experience in that area? The think is I've managed to use everything i need in Debian, and I don't want to install Windows in the other partition just to see DVD's
Hope you can help

Ok, let's see:
$ ls -l /dev/hdd brw-rw---- 1 root cdrom 22, 64 2004-07-22 22:54 /dev/hdd
$ ls -l /dev/dvd lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 2004-09-07 14:22 /dev/dvd -> /dev/hdd
$ groups alejandro dialout cdrom floppy audio video
Well, i could see a dvd for only 24 secs and nothing more, no audio. Then i changed the dvd and i can't see it anymore, the message is this:
"couldn't open /dev/dvd"
Hope that someone can help :)
Thanks

I tried with xine but it says something about "dvd:/" don't understand that :-\
Do you have a /dev/dvd link to the device of your dvd drive ?
You can verify with ls -l /dev/dvd
If it does not exist you can create it (as root) cd /dev ln -s hdc dvd (replace hdc with the actual device of your dvd drive, hdc is for secondary master).

root change it to cdrom or video, and make sure you are a member of
the needed group. If it still wont work change the group on the device
- /dev/hdc or whatever it is to video (or cdrom)
Do you mount the dvd like: #mount /dev/hdd /cdrom1 Or are you using automount?
