I HAVE THE LATEST MAC OS X JAGUAR SOFTWARE, BUT WHEN I COPY DVDS TO MY DESKTOP &ATTEMPT TO VIEW THEM THEY COME OUT DISTORTED. I HAVE ATTEMPTED DONWLOADING THE SOFTWARE (DVD player v. 3.2) AGAIN WHICH SAYS HOW YOU CAN PLAY VIDEO_TS FILES, HOWEVER THIS DOES NOT SEEM TO WORK! PLEASE HELP!

I have a similar problem! I am going bonkers! I have a new g4 powerbook. It didn't come with the DVD player so I downloaded 3.1.1 (I saw that 3.2 exists but it is not downloadable). I click on DVD player, I put the movie cd I want to watch on it--nothing happens. I fiddled around for hours last night because I don't have a tv and this computer is my dvd player. So this morning, I decided to see if the old os 9 system would play the dvd, i booted up in 9 and it plays it perfectly.  Why won't dvd player play this movie in osx and, moreso, why won't it open?  My os is 10.2.6   thanks for any and all help--befoer i go bald.  Peace!

to imacboi Copying the DVD to your hard drive without decyphering the DVD will prevent you from watching it. You have to decypher it first if you watch the movie from a copy of the DVD because of CSS encryption. Try using DVDBackup or OSEX for decyphering. Obviously you can only copy movies to your hard drive if you already own then because of all those copyright laws. ;)

Of course you may only copy commercial DVDs you already own because of all those copyright laws. ;)
