can´t playback video and audio cd´s

Post by otto »

Hello
I have some problems with the playback of (s)vcd´s and normal audio cd´s.
But at first the problem with the video cd´s I can mount them like every other cd and then I have about 4 or 5 directorys in my /mnt/cdrom directory...then I want to playback the "avseq01.dat" file with xine or mplayer but none of them is able to do that.
Xine brings only the error massage: "There is no demuxer plugin available to play..." but if I copy the file to my hard disk I can play it with mplay and xine why not direct from cd?

The second problem the audio cd´s:
I´m not able to mount a audio cd´s but I´ve read that this is normal an I can play it by only open it without mounting but xmms and xine don´t want to do that...

please help me.
