questions about libdvdcss

[David Legg]

When I got that 'ioctl_ReadCopyright failed' error message, it was 
because I had /dev/dvd pointing to /cdrom pointing to /dev/hdc via soft 
links (ie. ln -s etc.)

When I simply told vlc to use /dev/hdc (the actual DVD-ROM block 
device), it was happy.

I just have a problem with OSS sound that nobody seems to be able to 
offer any advice on ...


Cheers,
David Legg
