 |

So far I have tried Ogle (wrong video playback speed) and kaffeine. Kaffeine works well, but no sound. I use alsa with jack, both work fine with other applications. Are there any dvd players that can work with jack directly?

Spanik,
| Code: | $ mplayer -ao help
MPlayer 1.0pre7-3.4.3-20050110 (C) 2000-2005 MPlayer Team
CPU: Advanced Micro Devices Athlon MP/XP/XP-M Barton (Family: 6, Stepping: 0)
Detected cache-line size is 64 bytes
CPUflags: MMX: 1 MMX2: 1 3DNow: 1 3DNow2: 1 SSE: 1 SSE2: 0
Compiled with runtime CPU detection - WARNING - this is not optimal!
To get best performance, recompile MPlayer with --disable-runtime-cpudetection.
Available audio output drivers:
mpegpes Mpeg-PES audio output
oss OSS/ioctl audio output
alsa ALSA-0.9.x-1.x audio output
esd EsounD audio output
jack JACK audio output
nas NAS audio output
sdl SDLlib audio output
null Null audio output
pcm RAW PCM/WAVE file writer audio output
|
So mplayer does, that probably means gmplayer does too

Thanks. I'll give kmplayer a try since I use KDE.
EDIT: emerged it, but it doesn't do a single thing. Neither kmplayer nor mplayer. They both start, but do not recognise a dvd in the driver (kaffeine and ogle do). I put the sound driver to jack, but they do not show up in the qjackctl connection window. The alsa and jack flags are listed in my USE flags.
EDIT2: I got kmplayer as far as starting the dvd, but no audio. Mplayer is another problem. When it starts, it tries to open 3 windows, 2 of them open, the third never comes but no error message. When I click "play" it starts to access the dvd, but then: "Mplayer interupted by signal 11 in module: init_audio_codec" and it fails completely. I tried every setting of the audio panel in the config but no change.

The device is /dev/cdroms/cdrom0, maybe that can also be a problem. So I mounted the dvd, and then used the path to the /mnt/cdrom directory. The files on the dvd were audio_ts and video_ts . Tried then the following:
| Code: | mplayer -ao jack /mnt/cdrom/video_ts

If I try the audio_ts file I get the same output.
Xmms however play through jack, that's the way I use it always. Other problem is that this audio card (RME hammerfall) has 26IOs and no mixer. Can that be a problem that the app searches for a mixer?

Sorry, made a syntax error in the code block. It should read:
| Code: | | $ mplayer -ao jack dvd://1 |
Read the output of
to get a feel for how to use the options. |

I tried to play a .wmv first from the HD with
| Code: | | mplayer -ao jack sw_8M.wmv |
and this works fine. It opens 2 channels to jack and I get output. So it looks as if the dvd is the problem. Or at least how to start it. Time for more experiments.

That command didn't help either. But I managed to get it working (more or less). It seems that I need to mount the dvd, and then start the files manually.
| Code: | | mplayer -oa jack /mnt/cdrom/video_ts/video_ts2.vob |
This does the trick and then it works fine, video and sound. So it looks as if the filestructure of the dvd is to blame for some of the problems.
Xine however works fine with alsa.
