 The name of this plugin is dmd (digital movie disc).
 With this plugin, you will be able to watch all what
 is possible to watch on a DVD.
 An other interesting feature is that you can watch multiangle DVD.
 The mrl looks like:
 * dmd://Title_x_Chapter_y,  if Angle=1
 * dmd://Title_x_Chapter_y_Angle_z, if Angle > 1
 The angle camera is change on keyboard with KP_1 Next, KP_7 Previous,
 and F1, F2 to direct access to angle 1,2.

 A mrl like dmd://movie plays the movie, i.e. the title which have
 the maximum of chapters (Angle=1).

 You can start with autoplay like xine -p <mrl> : xine -p dmd://movie
 
 :::Warning:::  There are DVD which have more than one movie on them,
 look at as a precaution the playlist.

 DMD select your language at first playback if your environment string
 LANG is set.

 The plugin detects locked/encrypted DVDs and unlocks/decrypts them.
 Note that RPC-2 drives need to be set up for the right region with
 some region selector utility like this one:

 Note : if you use the raw device (/dev/rdvd) and the detection is not work 'use mpegdec instead mpegblock'.
 Configure the detection by extension in the setup window, misc.

 Legal status:
 ------------- 

 Unknown. That's why it probably won't be integrated into xine in the near 
 future. 

 Warning: decrypting DVDs may be illegal in your country. 
 I am no legal expert - so I don't know. And I am not sure if legal experts 
 really know that...
