Side-issue, but interesting. I have one disk that was burned on the hardware, stand-alond dvd recorder, that will not play in either xine or mplayer. It must just be marginal, something about not being able to read some of the ifo files, I think. I can play the individual chapters, launching from konqueror, under xine, but not the film as a whole. On the stand-alone recorder it plays OK - and guess what it's running? Unless I'm very much mistaken that's xine with a few extra menu options. If you request the text menu it is identical to the one I see on this box using the same option! My daughter has a Mustek portable dvd player, and that appears to have the same xine software, too. I've read a lot about embedded linux, but this is the first time that I have been aware of it.
