The optional +title specifier is a number which selects between separate video +streams on the DVD. If no title is given (``dvd://``) then the longest +title is selected automatically by the library. This is usually what +you want. mpv does not support DVD menus. + +DVDs which have been copied on to a hard drive or other mounted +filesystem (by e.g. the ``dvdbackup`` tool) are accommodated by +specifying the path to the local copy: ``--dvd-device=PATH``. +Alternatively, running ``mpv PATH`` should auto-detect a DVD directory +tree and play the longest title. + +.. note:: + + mpv uses a different default DVD library than MPlayer. MPlayer + uses libdvdread by default, and mpv uses libdvdnav by default. + Both libraries are developed in parallel, but libdvdnav is + intended to support more sophisticated DVD features such as menus + and multi-angle playback. mpv uses libdvdnav for files specified + as either ``dvd://...`` or ``dvdnav://...``. To use libdvdread, + which will produce behavior more like MPlayer, specify + ``dvdread://...`` instead. Some users have experienced problems + when using libdvdnav, in which playback gets stuck in a DVD menu + stream. These problems are reported to go away when auto-selecting + the title (``dvd://`` rather than ``dvd://1``) or when using + libdvdread (e.g. ``dvdread://0``). + + DVDs use image-based subtitles. Image subtitles are implemented as + a bitmap video stream which can be superimposed over the main + movie. mpv's subtitle styling and positioning options and keyboard + shortcuts generally do not work with image-based subtitles. + Exceptions include options like ``--stretch-dvd-subs`` and + ``--stretch-image-subs-to-screen``. + + CONFIGURATION FILES =================== |
