List: linux-video Subject: DVD and ATI Xpert@Play 8Mb AGP under linux From: FAVRE =?iso-8859-1?Q?Gr=E9goire?= <gregoire.favre () urbanet ! ch> Date: 1999-06-28 14:33:01 Hello, I plan to buy me a DVD, and I had look at http://www.atitech.com and found that they have a programm for reading the DVD without other extension card needed with certains video cards (one of them is mine...). The problem is that the programm is for win* and that I don't have win*. So my question, is there such a programm for linux (and not one who needs a PV@1500)? And what DVD should I buy: I would like to be able to view film with it and use it as source for audio copy (cdrecord/cdrdao)? Thanks for all informations! Please, don't cc to me: I am on the list...

My project is being moved and expanded. Look for an announcement this week... I am not sure how the ATI handles DVD, if it is just software playback, or if there is actual hardware decoding. As far as DVD drives go, I have a SCSI 6x Pioneer 303 that works good. There is work to migrate the DVD ioctrl's to SCSI from IDE. -Matt On Mon, 28 Jun 1999, FAVRE [iso-8859-1] Grégoire wrote: > Hello, > > I plan to buy me a DVD, and I had look at http://www.atitech.com and found that > they have a programm for reading the DVD without other extension card needed with > certains video cards (one of them is mine...). > > The problem is that the programm is for win* and that I don't have win*. > > So my question, is there such a programm for linux (and not one who needs a PV@1500)? > > And what DVD should I buy: I would like to be able to view film with it and use it as > source for audio copy (cdrecord/cdrdao)? > > Thanks for all informations! > > Please, don't cc to me: I am on the list... > > Greg ICQ:16624071 > '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' > Gregoire Favre, Institut de Mathématique de l'Universite de Lausanne > +41 21 692 35 73, http://www.unil.ch/ima/docs/Personnes/gfavre > > > -- > To unsubscribe: mail video4linux-list-request@redhat.com with > "unsubscribe" as the Subject. > > -- To unsubscribe: mail video4linux-list-request@redhat.com with "unsubscribe" as the Subject.

At least not to my knowledge. There are a couple efforts underway to get both software only and hardware assisted DVD playback to the linux OS. If you are interested in helping in any of the development project I suggest you take a look at the archives of and possibly subscribe to the linuxdvd mailing list.
