Another post I read suggested using totem-xine: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=672613
This worked for me. Oddly enough, after playing the dvd with totem-xine totem-gstreamer worked (almost). Totem-gstreamer plays the DVD but does not start with the dvd root menu. Under SMplayer I can now get it work, but still no root menu. In conclusion: either - the install for libdvdcss2, libdvdread3, libdvdnav4 and the install script took a while to be used by the system or - totem-xine scared them into submission. -- "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
