Discover Ubuntu

Your standard ubuntu is packaged with a regular version of Totem Movie player – a really handy movie player. However, it is not packaged with DVD playback for licensing reasons.

In order to get DVD playback go to your terminal (APPLICATIONS >ACCESSORIES >TERMINAL) and type in this command (you’ll need to be connected to the internet):

sudo apt-get install libdvdread3 libxine1-ffmpeg totem-xine build-essential debhelper fakeroot

And press enter. Then type in this command:

sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh

And press enter. This should set your computer to play DVD’s. Enjoy!
