I have had unsolvable (so far) problems with playing both=20 dvd movies and cd audio. MPlayer will play VOBs but no=20 menus, no navigation which can make watching pretty much=20 impossible sometimes.=20 I had actually given up on trying to get these two features=20 to work and have installed a new linux (to me), Kubuntu. On=20 this platform, there are no problems with DVD movies, audio=20 cd, streamed audio, even flash. I can watch youtube too.=20 This has not been the case on FreeBSD. I have tried=20 installing FreeBSD 6.2 via three different versions,=20 =46reeBSD, DesktopBSD and PCBSD, and asked questions on their=20 mailing lists.=20 But I do like many things about BSD and would like to be=20 able to move to it completely when I can have these=20 features working correctly, so I will try your suggestions=20 above and see what happens. neal.
