| 
| 1) make sure you are using the last cvs
| huh? what is this?
| 2) use the RTC, not the soundcard clock
| ok how does one do this?
| 3) use -mc 0.1
| do I type -mc 0.1? if so I guess I'll type $mplayer -mc 0.1 dvd://1 
| -dvd-device /media/cdrecorder
| 4) eventually slow down playback a little (unperceivable) bit with 
| -speed 0.98
| ok so now i type: $mplayer -speed 0.98 -mc 0.1 dvd://1 -dvd-device 
| /media/cdrecorder
| 5) use a larger cache ( I use 8192)
| -i tried increasing the cache as far as it would go , no help.
| 
| is that right?
