Unable to install libdvdread4 - 404 error

Asked by Amy Schnelle

When I try to install libdvdread4 I get the following error. I also get 404 errors when attempting to get libdvdcss from videolan. Computers give me migraines, so I can't monkey around with it too long. Is something going on or changing, it seems like there are a lot of broken links on the videoLAN libdvdcss page (clicking on the releases for example).

Thanks

Just tried accessing the packages that failed for you, and for me it now works.
So I assume there was a temporary network problem, and it might work now.
Just re-try and report the outcome.

Yes. Even companies have system issues. We get a few posts like this as people assume their system is faulty. ..

I reran the shell script three times. It failed twice due to timeouts and on the third attempt it succeeded. Thanks for the help. I was assuming I was doing something wrong:)

I had the same problem, i contacted VideoLAN and they restored their "http://download.videolan.org/".
The version of libdvdcss installed by the Debian/Ubuntu script "/usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh" is libdvdcss2_1.2.13-0.
The latest libdvdcss available already packaged into a deb file can be downloaded from "http://www.deb-multimedia.org/" provided by Debian non-free software maintainers.
