Mplayer won't play dvd
I have already used the mplayer in playing a VCD title and an .avi file located in my disk. Both of these play just fine; however, mplayer didn't work when I tried to play a DVD disc.
When I tried to make mplayer read the DVD disc, it will just hang up and the only way for me to stop the program is by ending the process "gmplayer" through the system monitor and I get this message, "mplayer interrupted by signal 15 in module: demux_open".
Need help. Thanks.

You probably need to install ubuntu-
That should do it. Good luck!

I already have it installed even before I installed mplayer. I have xv as my video driver and ALSA as my audio driver in my mplayer. As for the codecs, I use the ffmpeg video and audio family codecs.
Thanks.
