The DVD drive in the B&W right now is an Apple brand 6X max DVD,
which came with the daughter card I bought on e-Bay.
Mine too. Bought it on LEM Swap tho. :)
When I put a DVD movie disk in the drive, DVD Player starts but
then shows an error message:
There was an initialization error
A valid video device could not be found for playback. [-70017]
I get that error on some discs from QuickTime Player also.
Try VLC.
Ment "DVD Player", not QuickTime Player.
hum. Perhaps the problem is deeper....
My CD-Data and DVD-Data discs all play fine - mpegs.
My (finalized) DVD+R discs won't play in DVD Player or QT P, but play
fine in VLC.
I thought commercial DVDs are ok. But apparently... MIB II won't
play at all. But three other commercial DVDs I've tried work fine!
Do a search for "play dvd" on Apple's forums. There are a lot of
people having problems playing DVDs since going to Tiger. :(
Could Apple have hit us with some selective/buggy DRM in the last few updates?
