playing dvd files/video from the harddrive

[bruce]

hi..

is it possible to use mplayer/xine to play a dvd video/file from the
harddrive? is it possible to then burn this same file to the dvd disk and
play it from a hardware DVD player?

thanks

Of course. If it's a vob, just

mplayer file.vob

If it's a dvd, say in a directory called MyMovie (containing AUDIO_TS and
VIDEO_TS) then the trick is to specify the dvd device:

mplayer dvd://1 -dvd-device /path/to/MyMovie
