Play and rip DVD
I am a member!
Hi,
What is the "easiest" way to play a DVD and also rip it in Trisquel v7 ?
I have tried to play it in VLC but it does not work. I guess it is encoding/DRM issues? How to do this with a GNU/Linux installation without installing properitary software?

sudo apt-get install libdvdread4
sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh

"my dvd still refuse to play"
It would be helpful if you said why, or at least any sights/sounds/smells you experience.
But yes, you do need libdvdcss in order to decrypt the DVDs for playback. That script is supposed to do it but you can also go to http://www.videolan.org/developers/libdvdcss.html and do it by hand.
They have a repo you can add or compile by hand.
Here's an easy way with these commands:
sudo apt-get install checkinstall build-essential
wget http://download.videolan.org/pub/libdvdcss/1.3.0/libdvdcss-1.3.0.tar.bz2
tar xf libdvdcss-1.3.0.tar.bz2
cd libdvdcss-1.3.0
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
sudo checkinstall -y make install
And then Ta Da.
