Totem-gstreamer still not working
Hi folks,
I have a fresh install of sarge stable and am trying to get totem to
work.
I've successfully run the script
/usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/examples/install-css.sh
to install css.
I've installed gstreamer0.8-plugins.
I've set up symbolic links for /dev/dvd and /dev/cdrom.
The package does work somewhat. It will play a .mpg file using
the /cdrom device, but won't read the same disk as a dvd.
When I try to play the dvd I get error messages such as:
-Totem could not play 'file:///dev/dvd'.
There is no plugin for this movie.
-Totem could not play dvd://
-could not open resource for reading
-failed to open reason unknown
-could not determine type of stream
-cannot open file dvd://
-no plugin to handle this movie
My best guess is that I'm overlooking something obvious about either
the paths, plugins or devices. Can someone give me a few hints?
tia,
b.
