Yeah, I had mine going in beta3 thru rc1 (I think the previous trouble I had in beta2 was my drive that needed replacing). I use mplayer to watched my encrypted dvds. I have a toshiba. I don't know what could be your problem. Did you link your device to /dev/dvd? For example I used: ln -s /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target2/lun0/cd /dev/dvd (of course yours will probably be different). I think xine may require a rdvd, enable rawdevices in chkconfig. anyway, I'd be more than glad to help you if I can. Come back and explain what you;ve done and what your device is and anything else you can think of. Start mplayer/xine from cli and give errors recieved, as they can be real helpful. -s
