Cant play encrypted DVD's.

Asked by jasbarall@gmail.com

Im using a Toshiba Portege M400 with a DVD Rewriter multi recorder. I cant play Encrpted DVD in Natty Wal, despite adding region set (installed with a Sudo), restricted extras and VLC. There are no drivers particular to the M400 that I can find or that are exhibited in additional drivers. It worked fine under windows and plays unencrypted Dvds no problem . It just says the decreption libraries arent there, while VLC just says it cant play.

Try typing in a terminal

sudo apt-get install libdvdread4

    Then open a terminal window and execute:

sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh
