    Sindi, you have caught my attention.  :)

    I have tried to play DVDs on my other machine (good one, fast with 1
GB RAM, - that sort of thing), but I have been unable to play more than
the odd short intro.  :(

    The commercial DVDs that we get here seem to be all encrypted, and I
haven't been able to crack the encryption, even in Suse 10, Slackware 10
or Knoppix 4, and I have even tried with the "supposed" encryption
add-on for mplayer.

   The BL3 mplayer doesn't even come close.  :(

    So, how do you do it ?


Regards,
         Ron
