I use VLC and it works perfectly (probably better than Windows). I tried Kaffeine (nice interface) but it stutters on the audio.
I didn't like using that slot because I had to disconnect the firewire header which blocked the card. I never use firewire so it's not huge loss. _______________________________________________ Linux mailing list [email protected] http://oclug.on.ca/mailman/listinfo/linux
