Yeah the CRC errors looked weird. The DVD isn't scratched badly. And it also plays fine on a regular dvd player. So yeah I'm not sure what could be the issue. I was going to try out kaffeine and checked out its dependencies...it uses xine as the backend so I tried installing xine and using that to play dvds. No luck...still didn't work. Also I checked out /var/log/messages and these lines seem to be suspect: Oct 3 21:01:29 debian kernel: ATAPI device hdc: Oct 3 21:01:29 debian kernel: Error: Illegal request -- (Sense key=0x05) Oct 3 21:01:29 debian kernel: "28 00 00 02 6c b0 00 00 02 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 " Oct 3 21:01:29 debian kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev hdc, sector 635584 Oct 3 21:01:29 debian kernel: hdc: command error: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } Oct 3 21:01:29 debian kernel: hdc: command error: error=0x54 { AbortedCommand LastFailedSense=0x05 } Oct 3 21:01:29 debian kernel: ide: failed opcode was: unknown -- Amit Uttamchandani <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
