23 <P> | |
24 Notes:<BR> | |
25 - Do NOT mount VCD disks and play DAT files directly! It may work under windows | |
26 but won't work under linux. You have to play them directly, with the -vcd | |
27 option!<BR> | |
28 - VCD disks usually have 2 tracks: a data track (containing autostart windows | |
29 playback program, karaoke data etc) and a mode-2 track (the movie), so try | |
30 -vcd 2 first!<BR> | |
31 - the default VCD device is /dev/cdrom. if your device differs, then you have | |
32 to make a symlink, or specify it in command line! | |
33 </P> | |
34 | |
1682 | 35 <P>From Linux documentation:</P> |
1612 | 36 |
1682 | 37 <P>Some CDROM drives are capable of changing their head-speed. There are several |
38 reasons for changing the speed of a CDROM drive. Badly pressed CDROMs may | |
39 benefit from less-than-maximum head rate. Modern CDROM drives can obtain very | |
40 high head rates (up to 24-times is common). It has been reported that these | |
41 drives can make reading errors at these high speeds, reducing the speed can | |
42 prevent data loss in these circumstances. Finally, some of these drives can | |
43 make an annoyingly loud noise, which a lower speed may reduce.</P> | |
1612 | 44 |
1682 | 45 <P>The recommended way to do it is with a program called 'setcd' . It's kinda |
46 old, but won't be too hard to find on the Net. (UPDATE : new hdparm | |
47 has an option for this !) | |
48 Use it with :</P> | |
49 | |
50 <P> <CODE>setcd -x [speed] [cdrom device]</CODE></P> | |
1612 | 51 |
1682 | 52 <P>Also you can try:</P> |
53 | |
54 <P> <CODE>echo current_speed:4 >/proc/ide/[cdrom device]/settings</CODE></P> | |
55 | |
56 <P>but you'll need root privileges. I use following command too:</P> | |
57 | |
58 <P> <CODE>echo file_readahead:2000000 >/proc/ide/[cdrom device]/settings</CODE></P> | |
1612 | 59 |
1682 | 60 <P>for 2MB prefetched reading from the file (it's useful for scratched CDROMs). |
61 It's recommended that you tuneup your CDROM drive also with hdparm:</P> | |
62 | |
63 <P> <CODE>hdparm -d1 -a8 -u1 (cdrom device)</CODE></P> | |
1612 | 64 |
1682 | 65 <P>to enable using DMA access, readahead, and IRQ unmasking. |

5859 | 73 <P><B>MPlayer</B> uses <CODE>libdvdread</CODE> and <CODE>libdvdcss</CODE> for |
74 DVD decryption and playing. These two libraries are contained in the | |
75 <CODE>libmpdvdkit/</CODE> subdirectory in the <B>MPlayer</B> tree, you | |
76 don't have to install them separately. We opt for this solution because | |
77 we had to fix a libdvdread bug, and apply a patch which adds | |
78 <B>cracked CSS keys caching support</B> for libdvdcss (results in large | |
79 speed increase before playing). These cracked keys are stored in | |
80 <CODE>$HOME/.mplayer/DVDKeys</CODE> directory.</P> | |
