k9copy package

k9copy crashes as soon as I try to open a file

Asked by antman

The instant I try to open any kind of movie file, k9copy just crashes citing signal 11 (SIGSEGV).

I have no idea how to fix this. Please could someone advise?

Regards.

Anthony.

Do you have libdvdcss2 installed? I've noticed that k9copy can crash when it can't read something. The libdvdcss2 is needed to read commercial dvds. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs for more info.

oops i guess i should have mentioned that this only started happening for me when i upgraded to Hardy Heron in late March 08. although i have had k9copy crash for other (seemingly) random reasons also.
