Re: dvd encryption library
The regular edition of Mint should have the decryption installed, but if that's not what you installed it's easy to add.
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2
Re: dvd encryption library

i did forget to add that i installed from the live cd not live dvd but i dont know if that changes anything

Re: dvd encryption library
The US & Japan edition doesn't include stuff like that by default for legal reasons, the regular one does. It is easy enough to install them afterwards, it just gives an install like Ubuntu, no mp3, no DVD playback etc
Re: dvd encryption library
I've got the same probelm.
DVD is "Blindness", though.
I followed the instructions.
Got a message saying "libdvdcss2 is already the newest version."
Any idea where I go from here ?

Re: dvd encryption library
In have Mint 11 installed.
using the menu select Preferences->Welcome Screen and click Upgrade to the DVD edition
If you have Mint 12 it may be different. I think it is under Application->Other->Welcome Screen.
