Today I downloaded and installed 1.4.1.
After an initial problem of not installing, the second
attempt to install was successful. I have installed the
codecs pbi, realplayer 10 pbi. Then with Kaffeine, I tried
to play an original dvd movie (U Turn, a great yarn), well
it would be if I could get it to play on a bsd platform.
The error message after playing a bit of 'intro' was
"the source seems encrypted and cant be read.
Your DVD is probably crypted. According to your country laws
you can or can't use libdvdcss to be able to read this
disk. (Media stream scrambled/encrypted)"
so I tried a ripped dvd movie. this time the error message
was "The source can't be read.
Maybe you don't have enough rights for this, or source
doesn't contain data (e.g. no disc in drive). (Error
reading from DVD)"
This second message is the one I'm used to seeing.
So I tried an unencrypted dvd movie (recorded from broadcast
onto a +R DVD), it plays without a problem.
So I looked at the (xine) engine configuration in Kaffeine
for the path to the codecs and realplayer but both are ok
AFAICT, i.e. if there is nothing going on 'behind the
scenes' with Xine and paths.
So can anyone help save me from Linux? ;)
What can I do to resolve this problem.
