Kaffeine plugins to play DVD movies
 

After installing Mandriva it will not play any movie DVD with kaffeine, does anyone know where one can get the proper plugins to make it work.

Hmm... do you know about / have tried MPlayer for DVD playback?

Funny! It always worked OK right from the box.
Just in case, check the MPlayer site and get the plugins for free.

You need a package called , libdvdcss

Just configure your urpmi repositories and you will find that particular package in PLF.

Cheers

I installed the package below and it seemed to work for a while but now it wont even read the DVD, I am not sure what is going on. Sometimes xine will say - xine engine error - There is no input plugin available to handle "dvd:/"
Maybe MRL syntax is wrong or file/stream source doesn't exist. Plug-in cannot open MRL?

Have you installed all the updates? If you haven't that will probably be the answer.

Sorry, I just read that you are using 2005 LE. Don't even know if there are any updates for that yet.

Updates are available and I updated late yesterday but kaffine only worked for a few minutes reading and playing a movie DVD but then it stopped.

I get this message below, but how do I add line "/usr/local/lib"
to your /etc/ld.so.conf., when I go there through kdesu Konqueror it wont let me type the line /usr/local/lib inside /etc/ld.so.conf

xine-lib will be installed to /usr/local/lib

This path is not mentioned among the linker search paths in your
/etc/ld.so.conf. This means it is possible that xine-lib will
not be found when you try to compile or run a program using it.
If this happens, you should add /usr/local/lib to
the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH like that:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Alternatively you can add a line "/usr/local/lib"
to your /etc/ld.so.conf.
