Re: Prob watching DVDs



Hello Todd,

I use both Xine and VLC Multimedia.

Both work with certain DVD; fail to use outer DVD.
Why?  Is this because DVD is so old? Has this been fixed?
Is there information on different DVD due to their age?


Thanks for any help.

It is possible that the failing DVDs are CSS encrypted. Did you have libdvdcss[1] installed?

Looks like this library is only available in source form due to license restrictions. So you might need to compile it yourself with pkgsrc.

Kind regards
Matthias
