Hi Bryce, I haven't commented before because I've just marked this bug as “affects me”. I experience it as long as I remember (for at least 2 years).
I've just checked with some random VideoCD from cornflakes pack or somewhere. In attachment there's short screencast. It shows my desktop from time when I put the disk into my machine. After about 15s a dialog appears which ask me what to do with the disc. I'm selecting “open with Totem”. Then Totem starts with the message “Could not open location; you might not have permission to open the file." I close the warning and select from File menu to open that film. After that it starts playing just fine. I noticed different name in “Now playing” list when video plays well and when it does not play. Beware: It's all in Polish, so my English translations of errors and messages might not be accurate. ** Attachment added: "totem-err.ogv" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libdvdread/+bug/342890/+attachment/2611024/+files/totem-err.ogv -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/342890 Title: Cannot play DVDs - Could not open location; you might not have permission to open the file To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libdvdread/+bug/342890/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
