    • 2. Type: sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh
  • Ubuntu 7.04
    • 1. First, enable the Universe and Multiverse repositories. (Unnecessary for Ubuntu 7.04 and following)
    • 2. Type: sudo aptitude install ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.8-ffmpeg gstreamer0.8-misc mplayer vlc mozilla-mplayer xine xine-ui libdvdread3 libdvdplay0 libdvdnav4 flashplugin-nonfree
