+1.6 VLC eats my buffer cache, how to I use raw device ?
+-----------------------------------------------------
+If you don't know what is a raw device, don't even read this answer :-).
+There is an experimental support for raw devices in libdvdcss. It needs
+that you set up a raw device pointing to your DVD device (under Linux, 
+use the "raw" utility). Then pass the raw device as second argument, for
+instance :
