(I have marked as duplicates bug 782411, bug 854390, and bug 892731,
which report the error message "Could not read DVD. This may be because
the DVD is encrypted and a DVD decryption library is not installed." I
assume this is the same bug, and that gstreamer slightly improved its
error message some time after bug 748449 (another duplicate).  If I'm
wrong and these are not the same bug, please unmark those three
duplicates and mark two of them as duplicates of the other.)

Title:
  Playing CSS-Protected Video DVD in Totem results in error: "An Error
  Occurred - Could not read from resource"

Status in “totem” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: totem

  Upon entering any DVD, I get the message:
  "Could not read from resource". 

  Under playlist I always have "1" and "2", regardless of the DVD.

  This happens with CSS-encrypted DVDs, others work right.

  
  WORKAROUND:
  * Until Jaunty 9.04:
  - install packages libdvdread3 and libdvdnav4
  - run 'sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh'

  * Jaunty 9.04 and above:
  - install packages libdvdread4, libdvdnav4 and gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
  - run 'sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh'

  You may want to read the help from System->Help and Support->Music,
  photos and videos, and from
