Playing DVD's is on my functionality checklist, and when I insert one under 14.04, all I get is a prompt to open the DVD in the file manager.

I would like it to automatically open in Gnome MPlayer (or VLC, if that is a better choice for DVD's) and either start playing the movie or else give me a menu.

Reading up on the task, it looked like I needed to install libdvdcss, so I opened the terminal to /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4 and ran:
    sudo ./install-css.sh

But inserting a DVD still produces the same prompt to open in the file manager.

Manually opening MPlayer and choosing File: Disc: Open DVD with Menus doesn't work either. I can choose File: Open Location and paste in the DVD path, and that starts the movie, but half of the credits and such are in French rather than English.
