Public bug reported:

I already posted this one in the german forum

http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/libdvdcss2-und-
aktualisierung/#post-2436259

but I was told to post it here by one, who replied. So here I go
translating:

After playing around quite sometime, I finally succeeded to get the
Buddenbrook-DVD running on Ubuntu Hardy Heron.

Then there was a system update and it told, libdvdcss2 is outdated and I
had the system updated. (spreoceled wheel symbol near the right upper
corner of the screen). But after updated the system, I encountered the
same problem (scrambled motion picture) with showing the DVD as I had
initially.

I looked at the site, which had helped me solving this problem before.

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs

and I found out, that the key commands were:

verwalter@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install libdvdread3 gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly 
Paketlisten werden gelesen... Fertig

My conclusion: on Hardy avoid upgrading libdvdcss2 if you want to stay happy with showing DVDs.

Libdvdcss2 must not be updated on Hardy Heron, otherwise it won't work any longer
