Ok so your at home or on the road and you want to watch a movie, but you don't have a DVD player and your computer does not have DVD software on it...What do you do?
Or you have a spare computer with a dvd drive and its not fast enough to run anything worth wild.
Turn them into dvd players with GeexBox
Geexbox is about 8mb and will boot from a cd-rom (leaving the dvd-rom avialable for movies) or hard drive, usb drive, or compact flash drive.
This is geexbox starting up (I'm running it in Qemu so I don't have to reboot my pc)
This is the geexbox main menu. DVD movies play automatically when put in the dvd drive. yipeee.
Shortcut keys for dvd playback.
<-- arrow rewinds
--> arrow fast forwards
p pauses
q quits
up arrow fast forwards faster
down arrow rewinds faster.
It will also play media off your hard drive (if you have one installed).
Have fun!
