    Playing a dvd in VLC

    I cannot play dvds in VLC. Nothing seems to happen. I've looked all over the internet, and any fixes don't work. I've also tried GNOME, XINE, and Dragon player. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know and I have all updated software. I've opened VLC in the terminal and paster what happened below. Also, I have Kubuntu 10.04.

    Seems you do not have libdvdcss installed. See here for instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
