I just stuck a Pioneer A04 dvd drive in my FreeBSD machine, and I'm not
able to get it to display dvd's yet, so I'd appreciate some help.  I've
tried 2 applications, ogle and mplayer.

Mplayer dies with screenful of these lines:

Encrypted VOB file (not compiled with libcss support)! Read DOCS/cd-dvd.html.
Encrypted VOB file (not compiled with libcss support)! Read DOCS/cd-dvd.html.

Even though I compiled it after building libdvdcss and libdvdread, and
gave WITH_DVD and WITH_LIBDVDREAD to make.  Two sections of the configure
script show:

Checking for VCD support ... ok
Checking for DVD support (libmpdvdkit) ... no
Checking for DVD support (libcss - old style) ... no
Checking for DVD support (libdvdread - new style) ... yes
Checking for DVD support (libdvdnav) ... no

and

  Disabled optional drivers:
    Input: tv-v4l cdda dvdnav dvdcss mpdvdkit
    Codecs: opendivx xvid libdv real lzo
    Audio output: sgi sun alsa dxr2 nas
    Video output: xvidix bl zr dxr3 dxr2 directx vesa fbdev aa ggi xmga
mga dire

which makes me think it didn't pick up the css stuff anyhow.  Ogle found
the css stuff, and also found opendivx.

---------------------------------

Ogle gives no such errors, but it only shows a blank screen.  I'm running
a XFree86 4.2.0 install from ports, and a ATI Radeon 8500 card, on a 21"
Sony E500 screen running 1920X1440 in size.  My wm is windowmaker, if that
matters.

FWIW, ogle at least gives me sound.  Mplayer dies too quickly for that.
