Playing a DVD
Posted: Wed Sep 10, 2008 10:32 am
I have been trying out Mint5 Elyssa XFCE Community Edition, just running it on the liveCD.
When I run the live CD of a new distro to try, one of the tests I do is to run a DVD. It's only a non-encrypted promotion video, so usually runs OK. However with the new XFCE, when MPlayer starts, it gives me the error message:
Failed to open vcd://2
This is a new error message to me, and I am at a loss to know what it means or how I can overcome the problem. There's probably a very simple solution! Perhaps it will be OK after I have installed?
I don't want to make a big thing of this, I'm just wondering why it's happening.
Can anyone throw some light on this, please?
Many thanks
Keith
