Ubuntu 10.04 DVD playback

I have just managed to get DVD”s to play in Ubuntu after a lot of googling and these tutorials (here and here).Here goes:

• Run the following in the Terminal {.js name="code"} sudo wget http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/jaunty.list --output-document=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list

``` {.js name=”code”} sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install medibuntu-keyring && sudo apt-get update

``` {.js name="code"}
sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2                 

``` {.js name=”code”} sudo apt-get install w32codecs

``` {.js name="code"}
sudo apt-get install libdvdread4                 

``` {.js name=”code”} sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh

``` {.js name="code"}
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras                   

• This will install the codecs you need to get DVDs to play.

• Then run the following to set the region of the DVDs you wish to play.

  sudo apt-get install regionset

  sudo regionset

and change the region to the number you want (1-4)- Finally install MPlayer (the only player I could get DVDs to work with successfully).

Click:Applications ->Ubuntu Software CenterThen search for:GNOME mplayer
