DVD's yet again...

[evulish]

Ok, I got my video smoothed out but now I have a new set of problems/setbacks.

First: the video gets maybe 1-2 secs ahead of the audio. I think it's because the framerate starts at 160fps then goes back down to the normal 28 or so. I'm wondering how to stable this out.

Second: OMS isn't too great but it's the only one I could get to work partially, It doesn't go thru the playlist like it should. xmovie does the same thing. Xine reads the first second of audio then skips to the next VOB while playing no video. I can't get VideoLAN installed, (or downloaded for that matter...).

The one thing that works in linux but not windows is the one thing I can't use in linux :)

use xine. it works great for me

yah xine is kewl

the only problem i have seen with it posted here is the one you have explained above

personally when i had mandrake 8 on it i had to obtain additional lib files for it to work properly such as in full screen.

even better when i got the correct drivers for my gfx card.

I never got it working but I've seen a lot of positive things said about mplayer also: http://mplayer.dev.hu/homepage/

As I said in the post, Xine doesn't work for me. It just plays the first second of audio and moves onto the next vob.

Also, MPlayer doesn't compile for me. Lots of errors.

Oh wait, thats because it can't find my headers.

I'm playing the DVD 'How the West was Won' as I post this.

Finally got Xine to work as I just downloaded and installed the update 0.5.1 for 0.5.0.

Works sounds and looks great.

200 frames delivered, 0 frames skipped and only once in a while, 1 or 2 frames discarded. Guess that's quite good.

Sound and video are in sync.
