The main exciting thing for me is the ability to carry and play my collection of music and .avi's with me everywhere. This is really great. Why the hell do u need DVD-playback - really dunno ))
OK, so I got home and loaded up the DVD in the player. I have a DVD that is unencrypted. (Grateful Dead - New Years Eve, the closing of winterland 12/31/73)
Great show by the way,but I digress.
OK, so I mounted the DVD, udf fs
used mplayer and picked a vob file and hit play. It played, well sort of
It played the audio well enough to listen the concert, but the video appears to be at 1 or less frames per second.
BTW: Mplayer ran at 100% I think it could be possible to make a optimized player for unencrypted dvd's, but prolly not likely to be done.
