I'm struggling to get DVD playback on the SAM, using DVPlayer, to work at all.
After reading various forum posts I ensured I have got the following codecs in place:
avcodec v51.52 in libs (I replaced the version already in place)
a52_codec v52.2 in libs\avcodecs (a draw I had to create)
dcacodec v51.1 in libs\avcodecs
Using DVPlayer and choosing Project - Open DVD/VCD results in my system freezing after the DVD drive spins up.
If I instead go to Open File and try to play one of the VOB files (any of the VOB files) in the Video_TS directory I get the error "Volume <volume name> has a read/write error". Sometimes after cancelling this a few times I get an error about the file format not being recognised.
If I try to copy a file off the DVD I get a message about the DVD having a read/write error as the system tries to list all the files.
To ensure the DVD drive is not at fault, I tested an ordinary Magazine DVD cover disk and the system reads the files OK, displaying Jpegs and PDF's etc off the disk without errors.
I've naturally tried several DVDs

Anyone have any ideas?
