i'm trying to play DVDs. i should have the hardware for it -- an AMD Duron 950 MHz; an ATI rage fury pro video card; 512M of RAM. but, xine and ogle both appear to be dropping frames.
i ran across this post[1] (granted, from debian-powerpc) which suggests that it was just a bug in xine, and i need to upgrade. (but then why would ogle exhibit the same behaviour?) i'm running libxine0 v0.9.8-2. that same thread also suggests that this might be a DMA issue (which VERA seems to define as "digital memory access"). how can i enable that? ogle's faq[2] says to just the following line options ide-cd dma=1 to /etc/modules.conf, but that seems wrong to me, since that file is generated by update-modules. thanks for your help! </nori> [1] http://lists.debian.org/debian-powerpc/2003/debian-powerpc-200303/msg00599.html [2] http://www.dtek.chalmers.se/groups/dvd/faq.shtml -- .~. nori @ sccs.swarthmore.edu /V\ http://www.sccs.swarthmore.edu/~nori/jnl/ // \\ @ maenad.net /( )\ www.maenad.net ^`~'^ *------------------------------------------------------------------------* * http://www.aidsmarathon.com/participant.asp?runner=DCNO-3267&year=2003 * *------------------------------------------------------------------------* * Please help me raise money for AIDS as I train for * * the Whitman-Walker AIDS Marathon! * *------------------------------------------------------------------------*
