Because it's a bug in mplayer, and should be fixed there. Mplayer should not second-guess the user and blindly insert an r into a perfectly valid device name (/dev/acd0 - /dev/racd0.) Also, fixing the port fixes it for everybody, while this change needs to be made by everyone manually. (Unless you propose adding this to the default devfs rules.)

With block devices, you had to use the raw device, e.g., /dev/racd0c, to attempt to read 512-blocks and fail on normal cdroms because their block size isn't 512. /dev/acd0c was the block device so it could be read with any size at some cost in efficiency.. E.g., requests to read it with a block size of 512 caused the following enblocking and deblocking: - dd block size of 512 converted to BLKDEV_IOSIZE = 2048 - i/o done with block size of 2048. This happens to be the same as the physical block size, so it happens to work and doesn't involve any more enblocking or deblocking - BLKDEV_IOSIZE converted to dd block size. BLKDEV_IOSIZE is now PAGE_SIZE and is only used for bogus things (since it is still used but there are no block devices to use it on).

You might also want/need to change/define a local mplayer configuration ala: /home/.../.mplayer/gui.conf where you can change the runtime configuration paramaters such as: ao_driver = oss:/dev/dsp1 ao_volnorm = no ao_surround = no ao_extra_stereo = no ao_extra_stereo_coefficient = 1.00 ao_oss_mixer = /dev/mixer ao_oss_device = /dev/dsp1 dvd_device = /dev/acd0c cdrom_device = /dev/cdrom using/choosing a different dvd_device and/or ao_oss_device/ao_driver.

The probelm is that now I can't get mplayer or vlc to play any DVDs that had previously worked with the firewire drive. I have, of course, made sure that /dev/dvd is a symbolic link to /dev/acd0 instead of /dev/cd0 (as it used to be). The only difference that I can think of is that FreeBSD sees the firewire drive as a scsi drive and sees the ide drive as an ide drive. Have you tried (from mplayer's man page): -dvd-device path to device Override default DVD device name /dev/dvd.
