Does multimedia CD/DVD play on your system?

[semin]

Hi folks,

When I tried to play music CD or film DVD on my PCBSD 9.0 64bit machine with all my multimedia-related applications such as VLC, MPlayer, KsCD, xmms etc, my system just does not play those CD/DVD at all. When I insert the disc into my DVD drive and then click on the play button on those application, the progress meter just move for less than a second and then it either

1. does nothing - if only one track/file is selected; or
2. switch to the next track in less than a second, and then switch to another next track in less then another second, and on and on - if more than one track are selected from the play list

So far I have not been able to play any multimedia disc on my PCBSD9 machine at all due to this symptom.

I wonder how many of you have encountered this issue? Have any of you been able to play multimedia discs on your PCBSD machine without doing any additional setting? What would have caused this issue?

Cheers,
Sam

Not realy. Start-up time to play a Video-DVD takes more than one minute in PCBSD. I don't know why. Its not my hardware because in MS Windows it plays in a few seconds.
