[Bug 316990] [NEW] kaffeine dvd playback fails

[guymac]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kaffeine

I have a Dell Inspiron B130 with Kubuntu 8.04 (all packages up-to-date).
It has libdvdcss2 (from mediabuntu), libdvdread3 and libdvdnav4.

My wife has a new Dell Inspiron 13 with a fresh install of Kubuntu 8.04.1 and libdvdcss2, etc installed.
The former plays DVDs fine, but in the latter I get the 'libdvdcss is not installed' message.

The former has a read-only DVD drive, the latter a DVD-RW, if that is
relevant.

I have tried changing the dvd.device xine engine parameter from /dev/dvd
to /dev/scd0 (which it is a symlink to). I have tried region setting to
region 1. Originally both machines had no region setting (and the one it
has always worked in still has no region set).

I do not think it is actually a decryption issue, since the stderr shows
the CSS keys being extracted, and they are written to ~/.dvdcss/.

There is also a message about "demux_wavpack: (open_wv_file:127)
open_wv_file: non-seekable inputs aren't supported yet", but it is not
that either, since that appears also in the machine where it works.

There are no other log messages before the dvd css message pops up.

It works fine in VLC, but I would like to use kaffeine.
