dvd trouble shooting

[Nate_the_great]

i'm having a bit of trouble playing dvds with mplayer. vlc wont even load
  output of uname -a: linux box 5.4.3-tinycore #2020 SMP tue dec 17 17:00 i686 GNU/Linux
I have mplayer 1.4-9.2.0 with the standard codecs plus i compiled libdvdcss

so when I do mplayer dvd://01 it will be able to decrypt the dvd but it only finds the video stream and no audio. A new terminal will show for a few fractions of a second and then nothing.

here is the output:

Code: [Select]

playing dvd://01
there are 74 titles on this DVD
there are one angles on this dvd

libdvdread: Attempting to retrive all CSS keys
libdvdread: This can take a_long_time, please be patient
I won't retype the boring output from libdvdread but suffice to say it seems to get a bunch of keys for a folder called /video_ts on the DVD

Code: [Select]

i'm not asking for some one to just hand me the answer. A point in the right direction would be nice
obvs I can just rip the dvd but i'd like to save hard drive space


on a side note: if any one knows how to copy and paste from term to firefox I would greatly appreciate that knowledge. also how come after i compile and install a program, it disapears after re-start??

Hi Nate_the_great
Welcome to the forum.

... so when I do mplayer dvd://01 it will be able to decrypt the dvd but it only finds the video stream and no audio.  ...

I've never used mplayer, but don't you also need to set up sound too? Here's a link on setting up  ALSA:

... on a side note: if any one knows how to copy and paste from term to firefox ...

You can highlight the text in the terminal by holding down the left mouse button and dragging the mouse. Then center click the mouse
over the target to paste to.

Or you can redirect the output of the command to a file:

Code: [Select]

mplayer whatever > mp.txt 2>&1Now you can copy and paste from the file.

... also how come after i compile and install a program, it disapears after re-start??

Because Tinycore rebuilds the file system every time it boots. You need to learn about persistence. Here is some material
for you to learn more about how Tinycore works:

Hi Nate_the_great
Please use  Code Tags  when posting commands and responses seen in a terminal. To use  Code Tags  click on the  #  icon
above the reply box and paste your text between the  Code Tags  as shown in this example:

[   36.191753] pcm512x 1-004d: Failed to get supply 'AVDD': -517[/code]

It will appear like this in your post:

Code: [Select]

Code Tags  serve as visual markers between what you are trying to say and the information you are posting. They also preserve
spacing so column aligned data displays properly.

TL;DR
Tiny Core is just like a "Live Linux CD"(This is called "Persistence" as Rich said). And it stays the same even when you install it on a HDD. You could create a personal tcz if the files you want to save are big(create a tcz for even new programs you want to install). If they are small, add them to /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/filetool.lst so that they get backed up on every shutdown or reboot.

"How to create a tcz ?"
