As far as I can see for now the problem with Totem is resolved. I have discovered VLC player and it works pretty good.

After your dvd should work without troubles. If you want you can remove the debbian repository in the source now. For your other dvd I can't help you without knowing the format.

To answer your question, you need the w32codecs, and libdvdcss or something like that to read a dvd you bought. As for your other dvd you need to know in which format they are to know what to install. Let me a few minutes and I let you know how to install the codecs for the dvd you bought.

I have become a newcomer to Linux & need detailed assistance if at all possible. I recorded a movie from the TV and it will not play the movie. Windows has no problem with it. I can even put in a store-bought DVD & Totem will play it partially, but hardly at all. Do you people out there actually "talk" to each other on the telephone or is it all by email?
