gandang gabi... mga ubunturero...I'm trying to play vcd and dvd on my laptop but it wont play. Files like .DAT wont play on Totem and Mplayer.I've installed all the codec and plugins for both of the players. And when I play DVD(pirated);) there would be a audio problem. I dont know if its a hardware problem,cause I'm running Hardy on my Desktop and it can play VCD and DVD,even though they're from Quiapo:lolflag:

Any suggestions...

Salamat..:D

No Problem. I should have realised the post was in the Philippine Team forum. :/

Yes libdvdcss2 is part of the mediabuntu repository. ;)
