Thanks, Paul...
Oddly enough, the styler package seems to imply that author has more 
features available than their website says they do.. hmm.. I'll have to 
play :))

Thanks again!

By 'author' you mean 'burn', right?...

Or are you talking about compiling your mpeg files into a DVD file system?

I *THINK* the 'cdrecord' author has DVD burning software as well.

No idea if it supports the hardware you have or not.

Y'know--I *had* searched the ports tree. I found one package, but it 
wasn't anywhere near 'ready' for primetime.

/usr/ports/multimedia/dvdauthor
From the homepage  "A simple set of tools to help you author a DVD. The 
idea is to be able to create menus, buttons, chapters, etc, but for now 
you can just take an mpeg stream (as created by mplex -f 8 from 
mjpegtools 1.6.0) and write it to DVD."

I figured maybe I was missing something, so I figured I'd ask.

Re: dvd question

2003-07-30 Thread long cao
if you compile your kernel with 

cpu i686_cpu

cpu_enable_sse is turned on by default

you can also type 

make LINT 

in your kernel conf dir to get list of possible kernel options as well

hope that helps

Make sure that there's a symlink from your DVD drive to /dev/dvd and 
that the DVD drive has 666 permissions. Here's an example:

chmod 666 /dev/acd1c
ln -sf /dev/acd1c /dev/dvd

Of course, you have to be root to do this. Also, you might want to put 
this in a startup script if you run 5.1 and reboot often. My device 
links don't persist under devfs.

I second this. I find it even better than MPlayer, and it works well

Marlon, just a quick heads up. freebsd-isp is a list specifically for the
discussion of technical issues involved with using FreeBSD at an ISP or
webhost. The questions you have been asking are not really ISP related. :)
