Playing DVD

23 June 1999, 15:52

I recently installed the dvd decoder board into my millenium G200. Everything seems to be ok. I start the softdvd program. I have my dvd drive selected in the properties. I select play. After a minute it tells me that the drive is not ready or there is no disk installed.
I have a Pioneer DR-303s, scsi 6x-32x on an Adaptec AHA-2940U2W scsi card. To eliminate any problems with my other scsi devices I currently have only the dvd drive connected. It is terminated.
Windows will access the drive without any problems. What am I doing wrong?
Thank you for any help.

Mine: Epox EP-8KTA3, Matrox G400 32mb DH + RRG, Athlon 1.2/266, 256mb, WD 30gb ATA100, Pio 32x CDROM, Adaptec 2940U2W, WD 18.3GB 10k U2W, Yamaha CDRW4416, Pio DVD-303, Scsi Zip 100, Seagate 10/20 Gb tape, SBlive platinum, Linksys 10/100 nic, HP 712c printer, HP 6200 scanner, Linksys 4port cable router, Linksys 2port print server/switch
Hers: Epox EP-3VSA, G400 32mb SH, PIII 750, 256mb, WD 10gb, Pio 6x DVD, Zip 250, Diamond S90, Linksys 10/100 nic

I'm afraid the only thing you are doing wrong is using that useless Zoran SoftDVD and that's not your fault. It is known not to work with SCSI DVD drives, Matrox have known about this for some time.
