rogerh Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 Looking for DVD player software for Mandrake 10.0 official. Just looking for a reliable program to play some movies. Wife had the cronies over tonight and I settled in front of my system figuring I'ld watch a good movie and avoid all the chatter. My mistake in that I assumed that the XP DVD player offerings would actually work..... Movie stalled out almost immediately, as did my evening...... Are there reliable linux dvd players that will work on my 10.0?? Please provide info and download site. Lots of questions lately - sorry for the load. Your evening was probably better than mine......

scarecrow Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 xine and its frontends ( kaffeine, totem, kmplayer...), mplayer and its frontends, vlc- all of them will work fine. You just have to install the DVD descrambling packages, and DVD menu navigation ones ( namely libdvdcss and libdvdnav - both are in the PLF repositories ). I do not know if the PLF repositories are still maintained for version 10.0 though, which is ( in Linux terms) older than the Great Pyramid.
