     It's hard to learn English; I won't deny.  And you've done a good 
job, but I'm curious about "ambient".

     But if you have certain kinds of media you can't play, it's 
probably the format of the media you're trying. (Like, playing DVDs 
requires special actions, legally; you have to get them from overseas.)

     See "RestrictedFormats" on the "Community Supported" link that 
comes up as your start-page in Firefox.  Let me look for it...

     Yeah, here it is:   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats

     Follow the procedure there, and all will be fine. (Unless your DVD 
is broken, or something else I can't tell from here...)

     Good luck!
