[Off Topic] DVD Playback under Debian...

2000-01-10 Thread Ryan Losh
Hello:
I know this is not Debian specific, but I was hoping some kind
person would help me...

I just put together a new AMD Athlon based system.  Here's my
configuration:  600 Mhz Athlon, MSI mother board, 128M ECC memory,
3dFx Voodoo3 3000 AGP video, Toshiba ATAPI DVD drive, Symbios 895 SCSI
w/Quantum 10,000 U160 9.1G HD.

I've been out to http://www.opendvd.org, and I followed their
DVD on Linux HOWTO.  The only DVD I have is South Park, Bigger Longer
Uncut.  I can get the player to play the first 10-15 seconds (the screen
is mostly scrambled, but I can see enough of the video to see that it's
South Park).  However, the tstdvd commands all indicate that the
disk and title keys were successfully obtained.  Also, I don't seem to
get any sound.

Has anyone gotten the DVD stuff for Linux working any better
than this???  Does anyone have any pointers??

from what i've read DVD on linux requires hardware playback to work, i
read in a mailing list that some people were starting to get the G400
cards working.
