DJ RawheaD,

Thanks for the suggestion.  By the way, I'm using the VLC Client 0.4.4.

Under the new user it doesn't crash, but it doesn't do anything either. 
  Now, again, should I assign a region to my player first (i.e., watch a 
DVD conventionally)?

I do appreciate that people are working on this voluntarily; I do 
appreciate that.  But I'd really plead with those people to write a 
manual for use that makes sense, and makes doing what people want 
easier.  I don't expect a lesson in Unix, but right now there is a 
total lack of good solid information; which is why I subscribed and 
asked here.

For instance, i don't even know for sure if even in theory this program 
can do what i want of it (to play DVD's in a region-free way).

I don't even know if its OS 10.2.1 compatible!

It sees my DVD, but it does nothing when you try to play.



Maybe I'm just missing something ... which is why I'd like a simple 
walk through, if anyone is prepared to bullet point it .,..

I guess there must be others with my problem too, right?



all best wishes to all,
ian

p.s., I didn't try it with another DVD, but I will and will get back to 
the list pronto.
