[vlc] Re: VLC media player 0.8.6-test2 beta release

[eleanor mitch]

Hello,
I have been trying to read zone 4 dvds with my OS X (10.3.9) VLC to no 
avail.  Eugenio J suggested that I go into preferences and switch to dvd 
without menus and try the different settings (key, title, disk) none of 
which work.  I live in Brazil & can't view zone 4 dvds - help help help!!!
Best, Nora
