It was originally developed in 1999 by a few students at Chalmers Tekniska Högskola (Chalmers University of Technology) in Göteborg, Sweden, and maintained until late 2003. It was the first free software/open source DVD player able to play DVD menus[1] and can play CSS encrypted DVDs,[2] but does not play DVDs with ripping protection schemes such as ARccOS that are common on movie DVDs from major studios. Ogle does not play anything other than DVDs.[1] Ogle runs from the command line, but with the FOX toolkit install it can be used with the Goggles GUI.[2]
Ogle is copyright-licensed to the public under the GNU General Public License (GPL).
