Sunwatcher Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 I have an older computer (hp vt6200) with a fresh install of Mandriva 2008.1. I can't seem to play dvds. If I put one in the drive, it starts Totem, and I can hear sound, but there is no video. All I get is a green screen. What can I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theYinYeti Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 I had the same issue on my “salon†PC, that remained unsolved until I switched to Mandriva 2009… Hopefully you'll be more lucky. Yves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniewicz Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 I also use 2008.1 You need to install libdvdcss2 from the plf repositories to watch DVD movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scarecrow Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 libdvdcss2. And, if you're not using mplayer as backend also libdvdread and libdvdnav. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
