so... has anyone compiled mplayer with dvd support and tried playing a dvd yet?

I wouldn't expect it to work well, but the geek in me wants to see anyway.

The main exciting thing for me is the ability to carry and play my collection of music and .avi's with me everywhere. This is really great. Why the hell do u need DVD-playback - really dunno ))

that would be nice but
1st - n8x0 has a small screen
2nd - i highly doubt it could ever work.
3rd - without a video out HDDVD is useless

unless you are using it for DATA....
now there's a good idea lol

Most certainly for a penguin it must be -- but I'm a seagull :-)

Never feed the seagulls, damn rats with wings


OK, so I got home and loaded up the DVD in the player. I have a DVD that is unencrypted. (Grateful Dead - New Years Eve, the closing of winterland 12/31/73)

Great show by the way,but I digress.

OK, so I mounted the DVD, udf fs

used mplayer and picked a vob file and hit play. It played, well sort of

It played the audio well enough to listen the concert, but the video appears to be at 1 or less frames per second.

BTW: Mplayer ran at 100% I think it could be possible to make a optimized player for unencrypted dvd's, but prolly not likely to be done.

Still CD and DVD access is pretty cool
