To play +these DVDs, a library is needed to decode them, libdvdcss. Due to possible +legal issues, Debian cannot distribute libdvdcss, but it is available on other +places on the internet. If it is legal in your country to use css, you can run + + /usr/share/doc/kaffeine/install-css.sh + +at any time to download and install it. + +Thanks to Mikael Hedin <micce@debian.org> for the script. + +Region issue +============ + +With a brand new DVD drive, it is necessary to set (at least once) the +region/zone setting, allowing it to decrypt the DVD's sold in this geographical +zone. Be careful, hardware vendors often limit the number of such +modifications. You can use regionset utility to achieve this. + + -- Fathi Boudra <fboudra@free.fr>, Mon, 27 Mar 2006 09:44:19 +0200 |
