Hmmm... Some months ago, I used the trick to watch a DVD I'd rented then run out of time to watch before it had to go back - I used dvdbackup to copy it to the HDD then pointed mplayer at the copy later. It certainly worked fine then. I've just tried to replicate it with another DVD, though, and I can't seem to get it to work. (Perhaps I used libcss or something...? I'll try that when I get time...) The trick is referred to here: http://www.bunkus.org/dvdripping4linux/single/index.html#ripping_cmdline (The bit about mirroring the DVD and using the local copy with mplayer/ mencoder.) and later on, it's shown in its full glory here: http://www.bunkus.org/dvdripping4linux/single/ index.html#subtitles_text_extract Curiouser and curiouser.
