Re: Can't seem to get DVD's to work

Hmmm...  I have been trying to view any DVD for about 12 hours now with no
success.

Does anyone know the exact steps to enable this feature in SuSE 9 KDE
desktop?

It appears to be a codec issue of some kind, as the system sees the SuSE 9
installation DVD ok, but no others.  I see that viewing DVD's is a licensing
issue, but I also see referrals to various sites to obtain the needed codecs
to make it work.

I have installed everything from the installation DVD that looks remotely
related to DVD in any way, have also installed libdvdcss2-1.2.8-1.i586.rpm
and anything else looking related from videolan.org, and just about
everything on the programs or plugins list related to xine at the packman
site.

What have I missed????  Xine starts but sees nothing, the default DVD player
that KDE starts upon inserting a disc says in the open window that it is
missing a plugin.  Noatun can't do anything either.

I've enabled DMA for the drive.

I've looked at the bottom of each page on the Packman site and installed the
required dependencies there, but something else is missing or possibly the
fact that I installed my xine related files in no particular order has
disconnected something...?

Again, what have I missed??
