Multimedia :: DVD with xine

DSL can do DVD, can't it?

Im a noob and I am stuck trying to configure the css library( i think, libdvdcss?) and can't quite figure out how to use tcc to compile it.

lil' help?

1. Download the codecpak.dsl from the repository.
2. Click-n-Run
3. Enjoy..

If your using DSL-0.8.4, use your myDSL desktop icon.
Look in the "system" section.
Click on the "Get It" button for the codecpak.dsl

hey thanks but I already did that. the two error messages i get from xine are:

"There is no input plugin available to handle dvd:/"
and
(/dev/dvd)

i thought at first i needed css stuff and then guessed i needed a symbolic link(???) since my dvd is cdrom1.

comments, questions, nasty remarks?

I first deleted the /dev/dvd file/device,
then I did make a symlink from my /dev/cdrom1 to /dev/dvd .

Here is a screenie of my system playing a dvd LONG BEFORE
the codecpak.dsl was ever available... the date on the screen shows 6/04
Only the symlink was needed to make this play.
