[opensuse] Kaffeine/DVD
"The source can't be read. Maybe you don't have enough rights for this, or source doesn't contain data (e.g: no disc in drive). (Error reading from DVD.)" When I try to watch some DVD's in Kaffeine I get the above error message. [ Region 1] [ 10.2 ] It seems that the ones that do this open to a folder called video_ts in Konq. Inside the folder are what I assume are the movie files [ ifo, bup, and vob files ] Konq just lists them as type:unknown. Mediaplayer says there is no media on the disk Some will play through the FBI anti-copy message then stop in Kaffeine. I have watched some of these movies on my other computer with Kaffeine just fine. [ 10.1 and 10.0 ] I just finished watching another DVD on this machine without any hitches. [ Region 3 which brings up another question ] I've downloaded and installed all the Kaffeine and xine updates from Packman. Installed libdvdcss. I've read everything on the wiki and some other sites dealing with playing DVD's in Kaffeine and don't see anything I missed installing. Is there something I just overlooked? About the other question: In a certain Windows DVD player it said that if I watched three DVD's from a certain region it would "lock" into that region only. Does anyone know if Kaffeine does the same thing? -- (o:]>*HUGGLES*<[:o) Billie Walsh The three best words in the English Language: "I LOVE YOU" Pass them on! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Have you installed the libdvdcss RPM that decodes the encryption?

<snip> I've been having this problem with kaffeine for as long as I've used it, going back to probably 9.0. I've downloaded all the sources and recompiled and nothing seems to fix it. I usually get the error somewhere in the middle of a movie and it's pretty consistent where it happens. I'm on 10.1 now and still have the same problem. I just reinsert the DVD and skip past the 'bad' spot. I'm beginning to suspect a data quality DVD player is less forgiving to dirt and surface abnormalities than a TV grade one.

Jim I'm sure some will disagree with me, but...........................
My DVD problems all seemed to evaporate when I "updated" the kernel. I already had all the usual stuff done but still no joy. Updated the kernel and it all started to work. When I wiped it and started over the first thing I did was install the newer kernel. Then all the usual changes [ libdvdcss, Kaffeine from Packman, etc ]. popped in a commercial movie DVD and bingo, up and running without a hitch. -- (o:]>*HUGGLES*<[:o) Billie Walsh The three best words in the English Language: "I LOVE YOU" Pass them on! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I was getting this error in Kaffeine for all DVDs at the point where the DVD reverses direction and starts playing the 2nd layer. After a LOT of googling, I found that installing libdvdcss2 seems to have fixed the problem.

Jim Oh, and you can get an RPM for that library at:
http://www.hispamp3.com/foros/viewtopic.php?t=35466 Then just run (as root) "rpm -i libdvdcss2-1.2.9-1.i386.rpm then "ldconfig" and you should be good to go! Jim -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Jim Well, it now plays *some* DVDs without crashing, but others still crash at the layer change point. Haven't been able to find any more info on it, but I'm going to keep looking.
