It takes about 30 seconds here!

I have two drives here, a DVD-ROM and a DVD-RW. Funny thing is that DVD's never get mounted when inserted in DVD-ROM and never have, I suspect OS4 doesn't like the firmware (it's an NEC model) but CD's show up and mount fine. The DVD-RW is what I use to show and play DVD's (also an NEC model)!

@sicky

just an idea... could You try to switch the two drives... maybe it would check Your DVD-RW first... I know that is not the best solution, but ...

It's possible that the NEC drive is your first one (CD0) and it takes a very long time to respond. Maybe a firmware update could help there, or put that one in as the first drive. You can make DvPlayer directly play any device via the command line like so:

> DvPlayer a1ide.device:2

Now this got me thinking, perhaps the DVD plugin should be configurable not to use automatic detection.

Nice update :)

Just watched a few eps of outlaw star using the DVD direct play :) works great ^_^

What is "dvd angles"?

Never mind, I already have been answered.

IMHO it's not so important feature.

@chip

Indeed it is not important! But on this DVD, when angles are available DvPLayer plays normal version for 1 minute, then the same minute but from another angle... i can't enjoy some tracks because of that.

Seeing a live song of 3 minutes in 6 minutes.... anyway it doesn't happen if i select the single vob file.

Switch! The DVD-RW is master on a1ide (0).

@ikir

actually, if I understand correctly, there are seperate VOB files on the DVD with the different angles? Please contact me in private mail about this...

@Sicky

I have a NEC ND-3500A DVD-RW DL drive and it works flawlessly on my µA1.
It takes about a sec for a movie to start, just as Cobra said. Although I have
only one DVD drive in my system.

30sec sounds like it's having some problem finding the drive.
Does both drives work okey with browsing DVD's? What about MPlayer?
Does it play okey (& fast startup) from both DVD's?

Hi Cobra,


Good work DVPlayer is a class act. BTW is it likely there will ever be support for Encrypted DVD`s (I know there`s legal issues, but if someone else say ported libdvdcss or ripped some of the code out of Mplayer could this be supported unofficially like the a52 codec?)

I will be releasing the API documentation for the I/O plugin system in the next few days, then anyone can make any plugins they like.

@Cobra

The previous version tried (with limited success) to play .wmv files. This one refused to play a single one.

Is this a feature (refuse to load a file that is not 100% supported)?

PS: is it possible to make DVPlayer able to "remember" the file requester options (as in "sort by name/date, etc)? As it is now, I have to re-configure it for every file I open. It would be a welcome and probably not very difficult addition.
