Can't get VLC to play DVD's
Authored by: rondavesal on Nov 07, '04 09:02:59PM

Great hint!
I tried it with several types of music and movie files and it works fine.
However, whenever I try with actual DVDs, VLC crashes every time.
Sometimes it gives me one frame (the FBI one...) before giving up.
I use the stable 0.8.0 version, tried re-installing, tried using the 0.7.2 version, but I can't get it to play DVD's. (I used DVD Player before, so I don't know wether it ever worked in the past).
Am I the only one having these kinds of problems with VLC? I am using a 400MHz, 384MB tiBook; could this be too slow? Does anything depend on the DVD region?
Please help me out: I would really like to use my AE at least for music AND DVD (and preferably have an Sys. Prefs. sound out option set to AE, since my internal speakers are broken).
