| guiverc | i just answered a query (sort of) re: playing dvds on UF (https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2484230); i used lunar; but VLC is crashing ... if someone has free time (& energy) can they check out if I did something wrong, missed a step or we have an issue with VLC for lunar (on dvd media?) Fastest read will likely be https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vlc/+bug/2008602 | 03:40 |

| * guiverc is convinced I'm missing thing, but can't recall what... known issue? or ???? | 03:40 | |
| * guiverc out taking dog for walk awhile... | 03:43 | |
| arraybolt3 | I have a machine with a DVD drive and a movie around here I can use for that. Might try it in a bit. | 03:50 |
| arraybolt3 | (I assume this is one of those libdvdcss things right?) | 03:50 |
| * arraybolt3 has nearly burnt out my brain trying to get a list of files for installing the Broadcom driver offline without any form of Internet access | 04:20 | |
| arraybolt3 | (And their SHA256 sums.) | 04:21 |
| guiverc | thanks arraybolt3 , no hurry.. | 05:26 |
| arraybolt3 | guiverc: Sadly, I won't be able to test after all. I have somehow managed to misplace both of the DVDs I have around here (I only have a couple, I don't hardly ever watch movies anymore). | 06:57 |
| arraybolt3 | *both of the encrypted DVDs, I mean | 06:58 |
| guiverc | no problem... I moved on to other things; will return to it (probably only) if I get reply from OP on UF ; but thanks Aaron | 06:58 |
| arraybolt3 | I have one unencrypted DVD that I found but I don't know if it would test properly (I guess the producer couldn't or didn't care to encrypt it) and it has a section near the end that is unreadable. | 07:00 |
| * guiverc has no idea what DVDs I have; just a pile of movies from different decades... some good, some terrible (but were probably cheap) I never thought about how data on them is stored; never cared. | 07:05 | |
