| 1867 | 21 </P> |
| 22 | |
| 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. |

| 72 | |
| 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> | |
| 1612 | 81 |
| 5859 | 82 <P>Support for <CODE>dvdnav</CODE> is being added (not usable now).</P> |
