A couple more "symptoms:"
- I am able to play DVDs (even from different regions) just fine on a different PC that runs Linux Mint. (But not the menu screen.) - I get no video/audio signal at all if I use the on-board DVD player. But, if I connect an external DVD player via USB, I get the menu screen, but when I select a chapter, playback is distorted or garbled.

Although I use this pc primarily for music (low latency kernel, etc), I wanted to watch some (commercial) DVDs. But I have had problems and although I have installed the Ubuntu-restricted-extras package, I cannot get a DVD to work right (I prefer using SMplayer, although I also tried with VLC, Xine, and another called "Video"). >> >> Any help appreciated, as this is a bit urgent, unfortunately. >> >> Thanks! >> >> brian Links: ------ [1] mailto:[email protected]
