ubuntu DVD problems- Cant play Apocalypse Now
« on: November 03, 2010, 04:21:53 pm »
So what the title says: I cant get VLC or totem to play my apocalypse now DVD.

The funny thing is that other dvds play just fine, it's just this one that fails for some reason.

Everyone sucks at everything. Until they don't. Not sucking is a product of time invested.

Have the latest version of uh libcss I think it is? Due to legal restrictions, Ubuntu doesn't come with it (or recent versions of it) and you often need it to play DVDs.

Finally got it solved. I had to add a script for encrypted dvds, or something like that.

Damn I love this movie.
