Look at 'hdparm' and enable dma for the drive: Something like: hdparm -d 1 /dev/hdc

Dear group, I don't know if it has happened to somebody this problem I have trying to play dvd's with mplayer. I installed everything what it is required for the program to play encrypted dvds, even re-compile the program and so on. The program plays perfectly video cds, super video cds but when I want to play a dvd it opens it successfully starts playing no problem but the reproduction is very sluggish as if the memory was not enough or something (which i dont think it is the case). I have tried everything at my knowledge: -recompile the program with the recomended "disable run time cpudetection" - use more cache, -slow down the speed of the cd rom with hdparm, but *nothing* seems to work. What could it be?? I have 256 M Ram, Athlon xp 1100 mhz. This is the output of the program when it is playing the dvd in a "horrible" way: -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
