** Description changed: Without libdvdcss2, Totem, VLC, and others are unable to play my original DVD-s. I know it's illegal to ship Ubuntu with libdvdcss2, but it could be in multiverse repos, and totem's plugin installer could install it, OR add the medibuntu repo to the list (but leave unchecked), then Totem's plugin installer should give a hint, to use that repo's libdvdcss2 to play your DVDs. Newbies wont find out how to solve this problem by theirself, go back to win, and then it will be harder to solve the bug #1 :) + + ------------------------------------- + Desired solution: + + When a user tries to play a dvd, a dialogue should pop up displaying the + following message: + + "The DVD you have inserted cann't currently be played because the + supporting software has not been installed. This is because it is not + legal for Ubuntu to distribute this software in some countries. If you + are certain that it is legal for you to install this software in your + country, you can install it now. Would you like to install it now? + + <yes install now> <no thanks>"
