If you need to send 1 message or part of 1 message please do so, for new messages unrelated to the digest click on the link that says: To: fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx In order to play your DVD please check the preferences to show what device MPlayer is looking for (it defaults to /dev/dvdrom) then either change that to /dev/cdrom, or make a link from /dev/dvdrom to dev/cdrom. No you can't open up DVD the same as data cd's and there is no autorun there anyway. When I play DVDs I first open up Mplayer-gui from the menu and right click on the display and select play DVD there. I haven't tried this, but you might try to go to Preferences-->Removable Media and set the DVD Videos section to play Mplayer upon the detection of a DVD HTH Scott
