DVDs recorded from TV with a normal DVD-recorder can be played correctly.

But some commercial DVDs can only be played on one of them.

Following error (translated message) occurs on the other two computers:

Source cannot be read.
No sufficient rights or no data on source
xine: cannot find plugin for MRL [dvd:///dev/hdc]
xine: plugin cannot open MRL [dvd:///dev/hdc]

Do you have in your /etc/apt/sources.list a line like:

deb http://debian-multimedia.org etch main

You see, the commercial DVDs use non-free encodings that can't be used
in debian proper. So debian-multimedia has packages. If you look at
the depencencies and recommends of the DVD playing packages (and their
libs), if you aren't using debian-multimedia you may see some that say
"unavailable". (I use aptitude interactive; I don't know how to look at
this from the command line).

Doug.

I am afraid, this may not be the reason, because all three computers are using
the same sources.list:


deb http://debian-multimedia.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/ etch main
is where I am getting no free stuff.

Anyway, thank you!

Bernd
