DVD Player

[nanobyte]

I have a Creative dvd player and Mandrake 7.2 detects it just fine. But, I need software to play my DVDs. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Chris Lynch

Alternatively, you could wait for LinDVD from www.intervideo.org (http://www.intervideo.org) and its implementation in distributions (probably Red Hat and SuSE to start with).

I too have tried Linuxvideo's OMS and OMI, and have real problems getting it to work. The flip side of that is that the support on their mailing list is excellent and can probably help out a lot- I just haven't had time to spend on it (I'm learning Assembly Language at the moment and also C :-)
