Version: 0.8.3 (using KDE KDE 3.5.6) Installed from: Gentoo Packages Compiler: gcc version 4.1.1 (Gentoo 4.1.1-r3) OS: Linux Kaffeine has the ability to directly play DVD ISO files by supplying /path/to/image.iso to the dvd.device xine parameter. I'd like to play DVD ISO files directly from the command line, so I'm trying to use this option: -d, --device <argument> Set Audio-CD/VCD/DVD device path. [default] However, it seems to be ignored, as Kaffeine tries to open the default devices: $ kaffeine --device DH_S2D5.ISO dvd:// QLayout "unnamed" added to QWidget "unnamed", which already has a layout ASSERT: "i <= nodes" in /usr/qt/3/include/qvaluelist.h (373) libdvdnav: Using dvdnav version 1.1.3 from http://xine.sf.net libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.9 for DVD access libdvdread: Attempting to use device /dev/sda5 mounted on / for CSS authentication libdvdread: Could not open /dev/sda5 with libdvdcss. libdvdread: Can't open /dev/sda5 for reading libdvdread: Device /dev/sda5 inaccessible, CSS authentication not available. libdvdnav: Can't read name block.

Thanks
passing an iso file as device is quite strange :)
Yes, I know it's strange, but it's the only way I found for opening ISO image files directly from Konqueror. I really like the file->open feature but sometimes it would be much easier to me to fire Kaffeine from Konqueror. Thanks for fixing this.
You can associate kaffeine to the iso files in konqueror settings or through the control center.
