totem, vlc

Tags:

Hello,
When I want to watch a movie on some DVD (original DVD) vlc and totem
show only the menu, totem stops and said :
error: the source seems to be ciphered and can't be read. You need
libdvdcss.
But with etch: apt-cache search libdvdcss gives nothing.
Is it possible to make vlc or totem able to read this DVD ?

(I watch this movie with windows ;-))
Tia.

libdvdcss is available from the debian-multimedia repository:

otoolel@po:~$ apt-cache policy libdvdcss2
libdvdcss2:
Installed: 1.2.9-0.0
Candidate: 1.2.9-0.0
Version table:
*** 1.2.9-0.0 0
500 http://www.debian-multimedia.org etch/main Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

So you need to add the line

deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org/ etch main

to your /etc/apt/sources.list file, update, and install.

It works fine now :-)
but apt-get update complains about security: public key not available ?

Thanks a lot.

You can get all the information you need here:

http://www.debian-multimedia.org/faq.html

Question is if you trust the key ;) But you will get rid of those
complaints by apt-get.
