I don't think this would be a regression. I don't think we've never been
allowed to ship the required components for DVD video payback, which
implies that it probably never worked out of the box in previous
releases either. And it seems the instructions for how to get it working
have changed over the years so I don't know what works right now...
Please also try:
sudo apt install ubuntu-restricted-extras
sudo apt install libdvd-pkg
