Followup: I can start chapters if I mount the dvd and use the file:// syntax for MRLs. However, I get audio (very choppy) and only a green screen. Since my card uses a bt865 chip, I can only set options for the em8300 module - and I've tried setting the dicom_control and dicom_fix options in all 4 combinations, and still only get a green screen when using the file:/ syntax. When using 'xine dvd:/', I get the copyright notice, which displays correctly. -- Matthew Weier O'Phinney [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
