DVD on linux has been starting to heat up a bit in the last few months. Here are two projects currently underway (there are a few others as well): http://livid.on.openprojects.net http://linuxdvd.corepower.com Right now there is some effort going into REing the CSS encryption employed by the DVD standard. Next on the list is a fast software MPEG-2 video decoder. There's a _lot_ of work yet to be done. cheers, aaron - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majo...@vger.rutgers.edu Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

Check out the LiVid project at http://livid.on.openprojects.net/. It has had some problems lately with server related crashes, but seems to be up and running again (except for the CVS, sigh). They have a mailing list setup, too. -- * Jens Axboe <ax...@image.dk> * Linux CD-ROM Maintainer * http://www.kernel.dk - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majo...@vger.rutgers.edu Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

This is to hopefully pre-empt anymore messages to the list. There are currently a few projects working on the DVD issues for linux. I suggest heading over to: http://linuxdvd.corepower.com and http://livid.on.openprojects.net These two sites have mailing lists associated with them (both archived on the sites) and should provide you with the best information available for issues surrounding DVD-Video playing on linux. If anyone has any questions about this feel free to mail me off-list and I'll try to help however I can. This isn't the place for a discussion on DVD hardware support as there are a lot of issues (very few technical, mostly legal and licensing) to get through before that becomes a real possibility/issue.
