| Post subject: | DVD playback group |
Where can I change the playback group when playing a DVD. I know how to create the groups and how to assigned the groups to recordings but not DVD's. I'm on R5.5 and using the Internal player to play DVD's. Thanks |

As far as I'm aware, MythTV's playback group is for recordings only not DVDs. |

That's what I thought too but when I start a DVD it says Default on the screen at the start. I've set my default playback group's playback speed to 1.20. I have to back it down to 1.00 to get it to play normally. I think if I used mplayer or xine I'd be fine but I like having the same myth menus and remote buttons for recordings and DVD's. I think the playback groups for DVD's is new in Myth 0.21 since I didn't see this in 0.20. |

I Chunter2, I have seen what you are describing, but I don't think you can change it for DVDs. Is the opposite possible? Try creating a new playback group for your 1.2 speed requirement then change the default playback group used for recordings? Just a though. BigB. |

I'm guessing this would be possible but I was hoping I wouldn't have to change all my recordings to the 'new' playback group. I'll try just changing the default group's playback speed and play a DVD tonight. |

I tried changing the default group's playback speed back to 1.00 and the DVD does play normally now. So one solution would be to create a new group for all my recordings and use the default for DVD's. I'm thinking xine may be the better solution to just skip the playback group completely. I just need to sort out the controls for the remote so they match up better than the defaults. |

I've posted a set of lirc config files which may help. I went to some lengths to make the button usage consistent between xine and the internal player. At the very least it can serve as a starting point... |

Looks like because of upgrading instead of reinstalling I didn't get the newest lircrc file for my remote. It makes sense that I didn't in case I had modified it a bunch. Since I hadn't I just copied over the one for my remote from the /usr/share/lirc/remotes directory and now have all the new xine button mappings. They're much better than before. Things are working well now with xine for my DVD's. |
