Hardware Requirements

Software Requirements
- a52dec
- libdvdcss (optional, see NOTE)

Critical
The usage and distribution of the libdvdcss library is illegal in some countries (e.g. USA). The plugin can be build and used without this library, but then CSS protected DVDs cannot be played.
Configuration
Parameter

|---|---|---|
| -C <DEV> | --dvd=<DEV> | use <DEV> as DVD device (default: /dev/dvd) |
The command line starting VDR (i.e. in runvdr) has to be extended (replace sdX by DVDs device node):
-P'dvd -C/dev/sdX'
