dvd navigation issues
Posted: 22 Jun 2005 13:24
using: VLC media player 0.8.1 Janus, Debian
on one machine I start streaming a dvd like this:
vlc --intf rc dvd:///dev/dvd --sout '#standard{access=udp,mux=ts,url=192.168.80.4,sap,name="testStream"}'
and another I play the stream like this:
vlc --intf rc udp:
The problem is that when the dvd menu appears on the client, I am 'stuck'. I can click the 'play movie', but nothing happens, and I cannot start the movie.
How should this be handled in VLC? Also, is there a source for getting more info about how the dvd's work and how to navigate them? On the server, with the rc interface, I learned title 0 is the menu, and title 1 is the movie. And for each title "info" shows several streams. But, I can't find a way to determine how many titles a dvd has so I know which to select. And, the chapter_n and chapter_p does not work during the movie.
Also, I cannot find a command in the rc interface to get the current position. i.e. what title, chapter, stream, and timecode.
Thanks for any comments.
