When I got my HP (Canadian model, so I suppose the drive is set to region 1 by default), I had the same problem. My (one) Region 1 DVD played fine, but my other DVDs (all Region 2) wouldn't. I had to boot into Windows, pop in a Region 2 disc, let WinDVD set the region to 2, and after that everything worked OK.
This shouldn't be necessary with libdvdcss. If standard authorization doesn't work, it does a brute-force attack on the keys. Does the disk play in a stand-alone player? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The disk is clean and plays OK in other machines, yes. Actually I have multiple disks and they're all exhibiting something like this. Only certain vobs fail to decrypt (judging from the messages) but that seems to be enough to persuade xine to give up and complain with comments like "are you sure you have read privilege for this device?" All very sad :( Cheers, Simon "You can tell whether a man is clever by his answers.
