So I did
$ mplayer -v
MPlayer 1.0rc1-4.1.2-DFSG-free (C) 2000-2006 MPlayer Team
...
get_path('codecs.conf') -> '/home/brownh/.mplayer/codecs.conf'
Reading /home/brownh/.mplayer/codecs.conf:
Can't open '/home/brownh/.mplayer/codecs.conf':

Using built-in default codecs.conf.

You do not need win32codecs to play DVDs. Also, I don't really think
codecs.conf is necessary.
Perhaps you need the libdvdcss2 library to decrypt encrypted DVDs.
Debian does not carry it, but you can get it from
www.debian-multimedia.org . I don't know if the standard Debian version
of mplayer can use it even if it is installed by the user, but you'd
probably be better off using the mplayer from debian-multimedia anyway.
Eduardo, I installed the libdvdcss2, but it didn't help. I looked for
the debian mplayer you suggested, but debian-multimedia.org seems to
simply point me back to the debian apt repositories.
hi,
you could consider to build mplayer from the source-code from *their*
site after googling for- and installing the mplayer-codecs in
/usr/lib/win32. it is not too complicated to compile and build: if you
consider this as a serious option: start with --configure --enable-gui,
to be able o build the user-interface. i use mplayer mostly from the
commandline.
regards,
steef
