Can't play Windows DVD in Linux with Totem movie player?
How come I can't watch Windows DVD movies with Totem movie player in Fedora Core 9? I was able to watch almost any type of movies, with a bit of a problem, at times, using gxine in Fedora Core 3. Can someone give me some pointers? Thanks.
It's very obvious that a "Windows DVD movie" as clearly stated, is a movie that's been recorded/copied/burned onto a DVD+RW or DVD-RW via the Windows Operating System, Microsuck's so-called OS.

The other guy was right. And it's very obvious that burning a DVD (ISO Image) under Windows does not make the resulting DVD Disk into a "Windows DVD Movie". By the way back in Windows XP, Microsoft did the same thing. At some point they dropped DVD support in Windows XP. This made people have to chase down and pay for things like PowerDVD.
All of this so that someone(s) (?) can make a couple jillion more dollars that THEY DON'T NEED.
