[MPlayer-users] Cannot play DVDs on powerpc platforms anymore ?

[Vincent Beffara]

Hi there.

I have kind of a weird problem when trying to play DVDs using mplayer.
Everything was fine until I upgraded to the last version ... and now it
sees the stucture of the disks (nb of chapters and stuff) but refuses to
open any title, saying :

galadriel-~/src > mplayer -ao null -dvd 2

BTW, the very same DVD plays just fine in Ogle, and worked in mplayer
also before the upgrade. And, no problem paying divx files and even
realaudio (great job).Just in case, I include the requested info
here :

The files they request on the webpage, and the output of mplayer -v -dvd

Thanks for the help,
