Public bug reported: Cannot seem to run any DVD when using a xine-backed player in Hardy Heron. Originally installed Alpha1, however, have installed all updates as they have been released.
Was able to run under Gutsy Gibbon final version just fine. Steps to reproduce: 1 - Insert DVD in drive 2 - Choose Applications/Accessories/Terminal 3 - Run xine 4 - Hit g and xine control panel launches 5 - Click on DVD option Receive errors: -xine engine error- There is no input plugin available to handle 'dvd:/". Maybe MRL syntax is wrong or file/stream source doesn't exist. When clicking on "More" button I get additional error messages: The source can't be read. Maybe you don't have enough rights for this, or source doesn't contain data (e.g: no disk in drive). (/dev/cdrom0) Additonally, a window pops up with three tabs (messages, plugin and trace) Trace has nothing exciting, just two line referring to 2D_Tex and nothing that looks like an error. Plugin refers to a whole bunch of plugins being found, but no references to plugs not found The messages screen has seven entries. The third one says: xine: cannot find input plugin for MRL [DVD:/] followed by: xine: input plugin cannot open MRL [DVD:/] What's interesting is that if I use Nautilus to explore the DVD, and go to the video folder I can right click on any of the video files and view them through xine just fine. xine related packages already installed: libdvdcss2 v1.2.9-2medibuntu4 libdvdread3 v0.9.7-3ubuntu1 libxine1 v1.1.8-3ubuntu2 libxine1-all-plugins v1.1.8-3ubuntu2 libxine1-bin v1.1.8-3ubuntu2 libxine1-console v1.1.8-3ubuntu2 libxine1-ffmpeg v1.1.8-3ubuntu2 libxine1-gnome v1.1.8-3ubuntu2 libxine1-misc-plugins v1.1.8-3ubuntu2 libxine1-plugins v1.1.8-3ubuntu2 libxine1-x v1.1.8-3ubuntu2 libxine1-dev v1.1.8-3ubuntu2 xine-console v0.9.9.5+cvs20070914-2 xine-plugin v1.01~cvs20070523-1ubuntu1 xine-ui v.99.5+cvs-20070914-2 I have a lone CD/DVD writer in the system. The fstab line say: /dev/hdb /media/cdrom0 auto rw,user,noauto,exec 0 0 Here is the text from the Terminal window: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ xine This is xine (X11 gui) - a free video player v0.99.6cvs. (c) 2000-2007 The xine Team. AFD changed from -2 to -1 libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.9 for DVD access libdvdread: Can't stat /dev/cdrom0 No such file or directory libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.9 for DVD access libdvdread: Can't stat /dev/cdrom0 No such file or directory AFD changed from -2 to -1 If I try and use mplayer instead of xine I get an error msg: No Stream found to handle url dvd://1 If using gxine, I get errors about not being able to handle DVDs. If I go into configuration it says no device for DVD playback. After configuring that to the proper device I can play DVD in gxine. However, xine-gui still doesn't work. Totem-xine also refuses to play the DVD. However, Totem-GStreamer works just fine. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Cannot play DVD through xine-backed players in Hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/179510 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
