Hi all,
        I am having a hard time playing DVDs.  I can put in a DVD and open
Totem (or Xine).  It will start to play and will even give me the
correct title of the DVD.  Then I get an error stating: "The movie
'Error reading NAV packet.' could not be read."  Does anyone know what
this means?

Thanks!

I had the same error message... So I removed Totem and installed xine and Kaffeine. Still no DVD.
I could watch vcds but no DVD... I checked the Kaffeine mailing list and there they suggested to check first my packages to run the DVDs:


libdvdread 0.9.4.2 mdk
libdvdcss2-1.2.8 lplf
libxine1-1.0 rc3.2 plf


Still no dvd ... Then I had to check the pass to the dvd player since I have a combo player. So I changed this in my Kaffeine player /dev/dvd to /dev/scd0. Now I can watch DVDs and almost remove win XP. ;-) I paste here the mail I got from the kaffeine mailing list:

Open kaffeine and go to Settings->xine engine parameters->input. Is the dvd device correctly set? It should be set to the drive that is used as a dvd. If you have a DVD/CDRW combo it should be something like /dev/scd0 or /dev/sr0. Instead you can link /dev/cdrom to /dev/dvd (ln -s /dev/cdrom /dev/dvd).


Hope this helps Christophe
