Bug 24791

Are you sure the bug title is correct? Is it Fluendo specific?
Can you play the DVD & fullscreen with other players?
I cannot see Fluendo to install from Mageia repositories. Where did you get it? If from elsewhere, clearly we do not support it.

I have M7beta3 fully up-to-date, and am using Gnome desktop with a real video DVD. When Gnome can be persuaded to play it (which I found extremely difficult), fullscreen caused no problems. Specifically:
 VLC works fine, fullscreen included.
 Mplayer: when you can get it going, fullscreen is OK.

But it is fair to note that as things stand on my system (which also has other desktops), from Gnome:
 One cannot open the DVD from Files other than to Videos.
 Videos starts, but did not work (it has done previously).
 Parole crashed.
 Xine: I could not find the DVD in its open dialogues to play it.

The Fluendo DVD Player 1.0.12 did work fine under Mageia 1 - 6 for more than 8 years.
I did buy it from here:
https://www.ixsoft.de/
The former versions of the Fluedendo DVD Player have been shipped together with Mandrake Linux.

Will the most current successor OnePlay DVD-Player 1.1.0 be supported by Mageia 7?

Only the VLC player works for DVDs.
Mplayer immediately hangs after some seconds. It leads to a 100% activity on the harddrive. The computer gets almost unusable and nearly frozen then.

It is possible to open the DVD disc on Thunar.

/run/media/franz/GANGSTER_SQUAD/VIDEO_TS/

However this leads to strange reading activities on the DVD drive even after Thunar has been close. I mean that the DVD stops for several times as long I do not close Thunar. I hear a lot of noise because of access to the DVD drive.

I see all the files there.

OK. I am afraid this means that we will not persue the Fluendo problem. It might actually work for you again once the other DVD Gnome player problems are fixed.

Not unless already offered. (I am having MIRROR problems, so cannot check as I write). However, it should not matter given that Mageia offers so many video players (given that they work): Totem/Videos native for Gnome, VLC, Parole, Xine, Mplayer[-gui].
 
> Only the VLC player works for DVDs.
Agreed; this is not good. Thank you for trying. What about Videos=Totem?
Apparently M7 release candidate has just been released, so I shall install & try that with Gnome & different players. This bug might then remain with a different slant if the problems of playing video DVDs under Gnome with different players remains.

Is this one still valid?
