Debian's mplayer is based on a snapshot about 14 months old. So this will most likely have to wait for mplayer rc4. > Following error is seen when trying to use uri dvdnav:// > Playing dvdnav://. > No stream found to handle url dvdnav:// indeed. try mplayer dvd:// instead. > It seems that mplayer is not built with dvdnav support (missing > build-dep libdvdnav-dev).

I was told that dvdnav:// support was inferior to the dvd:// method. Diego or Raimar, can you comment on this? Debian ships libdvdnav in version 4.1.3-7. Is the debian mplayer better off with or without system libdvdnav support? -- Gruesse/greetings, Reinhard Tartler, KeyID 945348A4 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
