naive question, is there a way other than a complete reinstall to just reinstall the DVD Player.

On one volume it works fine. On the other I get an error message: "...can't find the software it needs, reinstall blah blah error 201"

I've checked and enabled all the relevant DVD extensions, to no avail.

If I compared with the volume on which it works: I see two differences, several DVD related extensions are in French, there are lots of ATI extensions which are not present in the other volume whether in French, English or Martian

Both are MacOS9.2.1

additional info:

The OS9 volume on which the Player functions wasn't set by me, it came as it is with the G3 I purchased

The OS9 partition/volume on which it doesn't work is the contents of a UTM Disk I transferred. Except for that DVD issue, it runs smoothly: Apple Audio Player, Soundjam, internet related apps, others (so far) = OK

It's not a tragic issue, when/if I want to play a DVD I'll just boot from the proper volume, it's just that I don't like it when things don't work when they should !!!

...or if someone has enough knowledge/experience and time !!! Maybe I could get a list of the required files for the DVD Player to function with a G3 Pismo? I could transfer them manually from one system folder to the other... I guess one or more ATI extensions are necessary.

Fixed. Added the relevant ATI extensions from the Install&Drag .iso made by MacOS9Lives. Thank you people, a truly helpful download.
