[MPlayer-users] Re. Mplayer setup help needed

[Adam Bogacki]

Thanks Dominik,

when I tried it I got

Tux:~# grep DVD /var/log/dmesg
hdc: Pioneer DVD-ROM ATAPIModel DVD-105S 011, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
hdd: LG CD-RW CED-8080B, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
hdc: ATAPI DVD-ROM drive, 512kB Cache
Tux:~# ln -s /dev/hdc /dev/dvd
Tux:/mnt# mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /mnt/dvd
mount: block device /dev/hdc is write-protected, mounting read-only
 
but although the DVD drive sprung into life and the MPlayer GUI showed 
'Chapter 1',
a message appeared saying

Error:
Can't open VMG info !
