libdvdread support #98

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

Every video player that use ffmpeg libraries also use libdvdread (and
libdvdcss) libs to enable reading video data directly from DVD drive.
It will be great if Xuggler support them since they are closely related to
ffmpeg.

Hi Leo,

We discussed internally, and given the legal status of libdvdcss, we're not 
planning
to add this right now.

We may add libdvdread at a later time.

Marking "Low" meaning we'll keep our eye on it, but no plans to add.

Hi Art,
Some thoughts about legal issues.
Technically speaking there is no need to expose libdvdcss directly - it wiil be
invoked by libdvdread (or more modern libdvdnav) if exists; if not DVD playing 
will
simply fail for encrypted movies. In any case both VLC and XBMC use it.

LK
