[vlc] mistake in doc for command line dvd

[Brian Robb]

There's a mistake in the doc:
http://www.videolan.org/doc/play-howto/en/ch04.html

Regarding playing dvd's via the command line...

It says the syntax is:

% vlc dvd://[device][@raw_device][@[title][,[chapter][,angle]]]
% vlc dvdsimple://[device][@raw_device][@[title][,[chapter][,angle]]]

But it's actually:

% vlc dvd://[device][@raw_device][@[title][:[chapter][:angle]]]
% vlc dvdsimple://[device][@raw_device][@[title][:[chapter][:angle]]]

And I don't think you should *ever* try to specify raw_device on windows,
so the windows version should be:

% vlc dvd://[device][@[title][:[chapter][:angle]]]
% vlc dvdsimple://[device][@[title][:[chapter][:angle]]]

e.g.

vlc dvd dvdsimple://e:@2:1
To play the 2nd video, 1st chapter on e:/ in windows

Or:

vlc dvd dvdsimple:///dev/dvdrom:@2:1
To play the 2nd video, 1st chapter on /dev/cdrom/ in linux

(Please add the examples I just gave to clear up how it works...)
