Surak if you're saying you think think this is a libdvdcss bug. From what I can see here, I would probably agree, as every log posted includes the 'Media region code is mismatched to logical unit region' line, so libdvdcss clearly isn't doing its job correctly. If so perhaps we should mark it as

I suppose it is the logical conclusion, since changing the DVD drive region code allowed me to watch most DVDs I own (region 4). As far as I know, libdvdcss SHOULD be able to do a workaround through this region restrictions, but since it wasn't working with original region code (region 1) and

I am experiencing similar trouble as the OOP (Buffer I/O error on device) while trying to play DVDs on 9.10 and on 9.04 (different machines). The region codes of the drive and the disk are identical. On the same hardware, the disk can be played in Vista (using VLC) The OOP's syslog mentions

Well, this almost proves libdvdcss is buggy. According to wikipedia, libdvdcss tries a list of keys and if not successful, tries a brute force algorithm wich, if successful, should ignore region codes. Aparently, the bug is only percievable if one tries to use discs with a different region code

Just got the following from wikipedia: libdvdcss uses a generated list of possible player keys. If none of them works (for instance, when the DVD drive enforces region coding) a brute force algorithm is tried so the region code of a DVD is ignored. This means that libdvdcss2 should ignore region

I had similar problems, and similar lines in syslog. Totem greyed out, VLC refused to play the disk. After browsing around a bit in Launchpad Bugs, I intuitively removed the Brasero disk burner application. I don't understand the connection between Brasero and DVD playback, but now the DVDs play!
