I tried that this morning and I get "can't open path /dev/dvd"
I can dd if=/dev/dvd  with a block size and a count and read the title 
so the link works.

Thanks,

|  |I decided to try playing a dvd on my laptop running current. I get the 
|  |following error with acd0a and acd0c and devfs doesn't have a dvd device
| :
|  |
|  |# mplayer -dvd 1 /dev/acd0c
| ...
|  |libdvdread: Can't open path /dev/acd0c.
|  |Couldn't open DVD device: /dev/acd0c
| ...

| Thomas E. Zander:
|  |Although I don't have a -current system at the moment, I saw this on a
|  |-stable machine using libdvdread in a version earlier than 0.9.
| 
| Don't have current here either.  mplayer works here on 4.3-stable (from
| June) with dvdread 0.9.2 as mentioned on the list, with /dev/acd1c linked
| to /dev/dvd, and running as root.
| 
| Sitting here playing the only DVD I have (The Matrix) full screen full
| frame rate no problems.  Just need a decent soundcard/speakers, and
| buying/renting DVDs starts to make some sense!
