I have never found a video format that MPlayer cannot play. Did you try Ogle DVD player? Sorry for asking silly questions. I read little bit your output. Did you edit devfs.conf with appropriate permissions and links. How did you mount your DVD. Forget about HAL. Try to mount it from the command line. su - mount -t udf /dev/acd0 /mnt Then try to play with MPlayer or Ogly. I am really curious to see what is happening Sincerely, Predrag Punosevac
