[MPlayer-users] DAT

[Arpi]

Hi,

>     Honestly, I don't know if they are VCD's I know there is a directory on
> the CDrom, with two (something.dat) files.  Under windows I could open media
> player select these files and play them.  I have tried (mplayer -vcd 2

> /mnt/cdrom/mpegav/something.dat) as well as the ones for mpeg files.
