I would like to use xine to watch ripped dvds. The dvds in question are in .VOB format in my /myth/video directory. I've tried using several different commands under settings>setup>media settings>videos settings>player settings. Currently the command I have under there is:
Code:
xine -pfhq --no-splash file://%s

When I try to play a DVD rip it says "loading" and then just puts me back to the title screen (showing info about that rip). What's the right command. Is it possible to get .VOB files to play on xine?

OK. I haven't found any of the stuff that you were talking about but I did find this:
Quote:

I don't really play svcd's anymore but I'm sure its a derivitive of the following

xine -pfhq --no-splash dvd:// (perhaps switch out the dvd:// with svcd:// or vcd://)
To use xine as the regular media player:
xine -pfhq --no-splash %s

The last command there is what I currently have but I still get the same problem. Am I editing the correct line I need?

I also have one more question. When I try to burn a DVD using the MythBurn web scripts, I get this:
Code:
STAT: fixed 14 VOBUS                         
----- datestamp=01-03-2006 17:21
Removing temporary files
Make ISO image = no
Burn to DVD-R = yes
Delete VIDEO_TS = yes

Burning DVD-R image

I ran:
Code:
chown www-data.www-data /dev/dvd

but it still errors out. Any ideas?

I play my dvd rips like this:

copy the vobs to "/myth/video/my movie"
execute 'xine -pfhq --no-splash "dvd:///myth/video/my movie"'

Please note that there have to be three slashes after "dvd:"!

Best regards,
Detlef

I can get the file to play from the command line, but that's not what I'm looking for. I would like to be able to play my rips from Myth's GUI. So should I use:
Code:
xine -pfhq --no-splash dvd:///%s

From what I understand the %s is what passes the file to the player. Is that right?

You can check the wiki too, There is a writeup that myself and others put together to do watch videos/dvd with xine. This is what you can use:
xine -pfhq --auto-scan dvd

However, xine has some post processing options to enhance the picture. It is described on the wiki. My notes are at the bottom "Another way for post processing".

I just figured out what I was doing wrong. My command was as follows:
Code:
xine -pfhq --no-spalsh %s

It should have been:
Code:
xine -pfhq --no-splash %s

SPLASH not SPALSH!
