Hi,

From the last line in the error message, it looks like you're using
totem-gstreamer, it's usually a better idea to use totem-xine to play
DVDs as the GStreamer backend only has limited DVD support.

Anyway, the errors above come from the libdvdread library, do you know
which version you're using? Check with "dpkg -l libdvdread3"

The latest version of libdvdread 0.9.7-8 seems to have an important
bugfix. You can probably grab it directly from unstable.
