I've found a workaround, which is basically to use the same process I used for 14.04. To wit:
echo "deb http://download.videolan.org/pub/debian/stable/ /" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/libdvdcss.list echo "deb-src http://download.videolan.org/pub/debian/stable/ /" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/libdvdcss.list sudo chmod a+r /etc/apt/sources.list.d/libdvdcss.list wget -O - http://download.videolan.org/pub/debian/videolan-apt.asc|sudo apt-key add - sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2 Apparently xine and the current libdvdread doesn't like the current libdvdcss2; one needs to use the old one. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1654087 Title: xine crashes when trying to play a DVD To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xine-ui/+bug/1654087/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
