Greetings:

This has to be in a FAQ somewhere but I just can't find it. When I try
to play a dvd with xine, it says it cannot play encrypted disks. I
have installed libdvdcss2 and it works fine for playing dvds with
mplayer, but xine still refuses.

I am using mplayer and xine from stable, and libdvdcss2 from
debian-multimedia.

Can someone please fill in the missing link?

Thanks,
-- Mark

I forgot to mention that this is an amd64 system and I have not yet
bothered to set up any 32 bit capability. I think that w32codecs are
both unavailable and irrelevant. Otherwise, how could mplayer play
dvds without any problems?

I do not have vlc installed. I am not really looking for yet another
media player at the current time; I'm just trying to find out what the
problem is with xine.

Thanks, anyway, for responding.
