I'll tell you what what I want to do, maybe you or someone else has an idea that might help: Sometimes I have to use a certain program to access a DVD. (According to German law, I am not allowed to tell you its name. ;-) ) This program runs nearly perfectly using wine, except for one little annoyance: as soon as I insert a DVD, the program starts playing its content. (Yes: inside wine!) And when I navigate through the DVD's menu, the program always instantly starts to play the selected menu item. This is pretty disturbing, because I can not navigate through the menu without the DVD-ROM running wild and me having to wait for the slow mechanism inside. I can only prohibit this behaviour by unselecting all audio drivers, because when the program doesn't find an audio driver the DVD won't be played and I can navigate through the DVD's menu the way I want. I am not claiming this behaviour being due to a wine-bug(*), but in former releases I could deactivate the audio driver for each application separately. With current releases this capability is gone: you can either activate audio for all applications or deactivate it for all applications. So, whenever I need to run this certain program, I have to call winecfg first to deactivate the audio driver and when I want to run another program later I have to call winecfg again to re-activate the driver. If anyone has got an idea how to keep this program from driving me crazy, I'd be very thankful to hear it. (* But on the other hand it still might be a wine-bug, because when this certain program is run under native windows, it behaves differently and it won't even try to play the DVD and each selected menu item) -- Wolfgang Klein (Paderborn/DE) ,_, PGP-Schlüssel per e-mail anfordern: (o,o) Request PGP key by e-mail: "Bitte PGP-Schluessel senden" {' '} "Please send PGP key" =====================================#=#============================= It is dangerous to be right when the government is wrong.
