Last time I tried this (same DVD drive, FC3) it was fine.
Now, FC4 and one spanking new mobo later (was dual 533Mhz Celerons,
now 3.0Ghz P4) I tried a DVD yesterday and it plays jittery: I get a
partial secnod of playback, then a brief pause, then play, then pause.
The glitch seems to maintani the same periodicity, and audio sounds fine.
And I get the same symtom with both ogle and xine.
Any thoughts as to where to look? I believe I've enabled 32-bit DMA
on my DVD ROM drive.
The issue could be the controller that is on your new MB. I have a
new laptop that has the same problem. I cannot get DMA to work for
the controller chip. I have not had a chance to try different things
yet but the latest kernel is much better.
Have you installed xine and run xine-check?
