No need to create special device for DVD. I've personally had good experiences from using ogle as DVD viewer. mplayer should also be able to play them, but in the old days, when I evaluated different players for personally use, it manage to crash my system (first everything freezed and then system rebooted). ogle and mplayer are both available from ports collection, just make sure that your ports are uptodate. --=20 Juha Ylitalo juha.ylitalo@iki.fi +358 40 562 6152 http://www.iki.fi/jylitalo "Some tools are used, because its policy, others because they are good." --=-JbeJXVJGzoYQ+knQiWtw Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQA9IYmJT3Z0FVGK5qMRAvwEAKCU12WBt/o8J2FoHnqDLdce+LRJWwCgp/2o NaQSSWSwU16Agagvr/LcAlM= =G42R -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-JbeJXVJGzoYQ+knQiWtw-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
