easyubuntu: dvd will not play
I have installed: Codecs, Binary Codecs, and libdvdcss via EasyUbuntu. It will not play DVDs. It will play an xvid.avi file from a CD in the same drive; it will play a .mp4 file from the hard drive.
Synaptic shows libdvdcss2 installed.
Totem/Movie/Properties shows Video Codec: MPEG-2 video.
Disks Manager shows Status: DVD Video Inserted.
Error msg when I try to play a DVD:
'Totem cannot play this type of media (DVD) because you do not have the appropriate plugins to handle it'
The DVD drive is a Samsung CDRW/DVD SM348B. The hardware plays DVDs under Windows and has played DVDs under Linux.
I have made a fresh installation of 'Dapper' (386) with Updates and then used EasyUbuntu to install the above codecs etc together with Nvidia driver, fonts etc.
