Milan: I haven't tested it with 11.10, because it is difficult to find a DVD drive with a region not yet set, but it definitely was the case with 11.04 which I tested with a new drive.

Install Ubuntu. 2. Insert a standard movie DVD. What happens: * In Ubuntu 10.10 and earlier, "An error occurred" - "Could not read from resource." * In Ubuntu 11.10, "An error occurred" - "Could not read DVD. This may be because the DVD is encrypted and a DVD decryption library is not installed." Without libdvdcss2, Totem, VLC, and others are unable to play my original DVD-s. I know it's illegal to ship Ubuntu with libdvdcss2, but it could be in multiverse repos, and totem's plugin installer could install it, OR add the medibuntu repo to the list (but leave unchecked), then Totem's plugin installer should give a hint, to use that repo's libdvdcss2 to play your DVDs. Newbies wont find out how to solve this problem by theirself, go back to win, and then it will be harder to solve the bug #1 :) Not to be confused with: * bug 502426, where DVDs don't play when libdvdcss is installed * bug 745515, "An error occured location not found" while trying to play a DVD * bug 747433, "Totem cannot play this type of media DVD because it does not have the appropriate plugins to be able to read from this disc" ------------------------------------- Desired solution: This bug will be fixed as part of the larger "3rd party codec install" project (project contact Christian Giordano).
