Yes, you should use an 80 wires ribbon cable for UDMA modes.I tried disabling the DMA, but then playing DVDs works fine. Only seeking takes more time than with DMA enabled. Would a 80-wires ribbon cable help? I have seen this mentionned somewhere on the Web.
Normally the hardware shouldn't allow DMA on a 40 pins cable. Maybe linux bypasses that and this is what causes the problems.
I'll check my cable too ;)
If that is the case, there is a workaround for the problem, still I do agree that this part of freevo should be much more crash-resistant.
I'll try to find the workaround. The freevo-XXX mailing lists don't seem to be archived in SourceForge, though, it's a bit annoying.
I found a post
(http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg04454.html)
mentioning my problem. I'll try a newer runtime...
runtime 0.3.1 has a patched dvdinfo.py that uses mplayer to parse the contents of a dvd.
