As running ogle, I get this for avi files.

~$ ogle Dvd/dvix/file.avi
libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.8 for DVD access
libdvdread: Can't open file VIDEO_TS.IFO.
ERROR[ogle_nav]: faild to read VIDEO_TS.IFO
DVDSetDVDRoot:: Root not set

I checked the forum about this problem. There are many posts already for same. Answer is : link your cd/dvd reader to /dev/dvd.Ok. Done already.

I am able to play dvd movies via my dvd reader, as copies of those on HD.
But the problem is that as I try to play avi files, I get this answer.

So, I do not know if it is really an ogle problem, or just the way I built the avi file.

Thanks any help.

Hi folks,

Please could someone tell me why ogle is unable to read an avi file on hard disk, even it is able to read a dvd on dvd drive or just ripped on hard disk.
The same avi file is readed by mplayer without any problem.

~/Dvd/dvix$ ogle file.avi
libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.8 for DVD access
libdvdread: Can't open file VIDEO_TS.IFO.
ERROR[ogle_nav]: faild to read VIDEO_TS.IFO

Thanks,

merged double post

It's my understanding that ogle only plays DVD's, it doesn't play media files like avi's or mpg's.
