The sound works digitally across 5.1 channels, and what's more, it looks like all of k3b's functions (at least to the point I understand them) are all working. All completely without any reliance whatsoever upon x86 compatibility. It's all done with native-built ports, no packages. Anyhow, I have acidrip working well, and I've ripped a dvd. This is that dvd from a few weeks ago, its' got region==2, and it's in PAL, so I want to set it up in some format that plays in my friend's old dvd player, so he can finally, at long last *see* the dvd he paid for. He could have watched it some weeks ago on my system, but he wants to see it at home. How unreasonable! Anyhow, after I ripped it with Acidrip, it came right up on an .avi format, all in the same format. So, question, anyone know what sort of format plays from a cd to a dvd player (I am happily willing to lose the menus)
