Yes, that worked for me too, but the documentation and error messages should be much clearer. It's counter-intuitive for sudo apt-get install not to actually install what's necessary. Is that for legal reasons, the way that Audacity doesn't export to MP3 out of the box? Then Totem should say that clearly - "The DVD you've just inserted, The Time Traveler's Wife, will not play until you run sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh in a terminal." As it is, the implication is, "Oh, do you actually want to play encrypted DVDs? I didn't know."
On the other hand, maybe this is a different kind of bug. This is the first commercial DVD I haven't been able to play. Has the industry come up with a new encryption variant that doesn't work out of the box the way the previous version did? -- "Could not read from resource" error when playing encrypted DVD https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/219062 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
