cannot find dvd plug ins for totem


hey everyone,

i am new to linux and for the first time last week began using fedora core 6 on my desktop. everything works fine except when i try to play a dvd. it says that it needs additional plug ins to run the file. i have searched for totem programs and other linux files updates i could find, but i am not having any luck finding the correct plug in files. could someone give me a hand in finding the right plug ins?

thanks in advance

You probably need libdvdread and libdvdcss.

see here(post 2) for Fedora instructions on installing libdvdcss.

You probably have to install also the totem-xine movie player, a version different from that installed with Fedora. See http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/sho...d.php?t=100206 for some explanations.
