VLC not playing DVDs in UBUNTU

Postby blaisemcrowly » 01 Oct 2010 20:34

Hi all
I am having trouble with playing DVDs in Linux , I cant get them to run
I used the open disk and also tried to different entry chapters, no luck
the screen just blinks and go back to standby mode: :?

So i ran VLC from command line to see if it gave any clue
It gave the following output , unfortunately i dont understand teh core problem reading it :shock:
Please help, my friends are here and its boring without a few DVDs right :)

OUTPUT in COMMAND LINE:

Code: Select all

[0x983e668] main libvlc: Running vlc with the default interface. Use 'cvlc' to use vlc without interface. libdvdnav: Using dvdnav version 4.1.3 libdvdread: Encrypted DVD support unavailable. ************************************************ ** ** ** No css library available.

Sounds like you need to install libdvdcss.
