Hi Nick and Brett<br>
Had some issue getting log as the one I sent was bounced because of size. In the end deleted all logs started sytem up from scratch shutdown front end and checked it looked ok and the restarted and tried to load dvd . It looks to me like it has a issue with loadeding the dvd, but from there I would be lost.<br>
answer to Bretts questions:<br>
Dvd mounts on desktop and say what the disk is, no other action is asked, from there I am able to run it in vlc but only in stereo and not in dts to the amp but the signal is being passed by the optical cable.<br>
And as my Linux ability is weak to at best how do I check that mythtv has access to drive?<br>
Once again thanks a lot for putting up with my lack of knowledge<br></blockquote><div><br>The log reveals the problem:<br><br>libdvdread: Can't stat /dev/dvd<br>No such file or directory<br>libdvdnav: Using dvdnav version svnR1169<br>
libdvdnav: vm: failed to open/read the DVD<br>2010-08-08 13:31:14.493 Failed to open DVD device at /dev/dvd<br><br>Mythtv is looking for the dvd at /dev/dvd. This is apparently not what your dvd device is set up as. You need to correct the device name in Mythfrontend setup->Media settings->Videos settings->General settings page 3. In my system the dvd is /dev/cdrom, it could be that on your system or it could be /dev/dvd0 or something else.<br>
<br>Cheers,<br>Steve<br></div></div>
