What it is, I bought an Acer DVD player, and I have been trying to play films using it. It keeps telling me that I am missing some codecs. I followed the instructions, but it doesnt get you anywhere. Would anybody know the codecs that are needed to use with Totem Movie PLayer, as that seems to be my player. Or is there another player that I can use that would play the DVD's? Thank you again for your help. :) John -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
