Well, you have to have zillions of support libs installed, but if you have all the junk like libdvdcss and libdvdnav and just about anything else with "dvd" in the name from rpmfusion, then something like this works for me: mplayer dvd://1 -alang en -ao alsa:device=hw=1.0 -ac hwdts,hwac3, -monitoraspect 16:9 -fs That tells it to go directly to title 1 (which is usually the main movie, you might have to adjust this for some DVDs) and play that and the english soundtrack (if it is marked properly - also spotty with some DVDs). It also sends the already encoded soundtrack directly from the DVD to the digital output on my soundcard (which goes to my sound system). There are all sorts of other nifty mplayer tricks out there, like a filter to observe the black bands on a letterbox DVD and tell you what cropping and scaling filters to use to blow it up to fill the screen :-). -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
