I am sorry, but this did not work for me. I am using Ubuntu 7.10. Totem keeps telling me "Are you trying to open a coded DVD without libdvdcss?" although that I have them installed.

This is the output from Totem when ran in terminal:

libdvdnav: Using dvdnav version 1.1.7 from http://xine.sf.net
libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.9 for DVD access
libdvdread: Attempting to use device /dev/scd0 mounted on /media/cdrom0 for CSS authentication
libdvdnav: Can't read name block. Probably not a DVD-ROM device.
libdvdnav: Unable to find map file '/home/molpsychist/.dvdnav/.map'
libdvdnav: DVD disk reports itself with Region mask 0x00fe0000. Regions: 1

libdvdread: Attempting to retrieve all CSS keys
libdvdread: This can take a _long_ time, please be patient

Can you help me with that? Thank you!

Works great! But I had to remove the totem-gstreamer in the Synaptic Pakage Manager to get it working without conflict.

Thanks!

those commands dont work any more.
you need to change the libdvdread3 to libdvdread4 in both lines and it works great. DVD plays now with no problems.
