I most often do a binary copy of the DVDs rather than a "rip". And then
play the binary copy of the dvd. Something like:
> dd if=/dev/dvd of=/tmp/copy_of.dvd bs=2048
> xinev --auto-scan dvd dvd:///tmp/copy_of.dvd/
Or you may do that at a friend's house where you know his setup works.
Can you play DVDs with just regular xine? Outside of Myth? With Mplayer?
That may help you separate whether it is a DVD hardware problem or a
xine software problem.... I actually had hardware problems that went
away when I replaced the physical DVD drive...
