libdvdcss and 64-bit video codecs

[kbunt]

Where do you get them or how do you get them in Intrepid?

Only dvdread3 is shown.

Edit: I enabled the medibuntu repository but libdvdcss and win32codecs are nowhere to be found. Also, do I need 64-bit codecs if I installed the 64-bit version of Kubuntu?

From the Medibuntu.

Did you update the apt package database ?


There should be:

package: non-free-codecs

This package depends on the binaries codecs package matching your architecture
(w32codecs for i386, w64codecs for amd64 and ppc-codecs for powerpc systems).

It can be safely removed.

It is a metapackage, it just installs other packages => w32codecs/w64codecs/ppc-codecs..

and for you (amd64)

package: w64codecs

This package contains the "Win32" codec binaries for the x86_64 architectures, required for the decompression of video formats that have no open source alternative.

This is in Medibuntu due to its non-free license

You can also download single packages from the Medibuntu. Download a package, right click it, install with the GDebi...
