How to read a dvd on ubuntu

Hello!

Could someone explain to me how to read DVDs because I don't understand anything from the given link.

I'm talking about non-free DVDs.

It's easy, VLC exists for Ubuntu.

I found it even simpler: emulate VLC for Windows with wine, click on play => disk! it works!!

Thank you!! It's working.

I'm a novice but it went very quickly following the advice found on the forum and on the page http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/lire_un_dvd

For beginners like me, here’s how I proceeded:

- VLC already installed;
- libdvdread4 already installed (according to the software center);

- I went into a terminal (I searched for "terminal" in the menu and opened the first thing that looked like it... I didn't even know what it was!)

- I pasted the line recommended in the forums:
sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh

- I typed my computer's administrator password
(I learned at the same time that the password is typed blindly: the indicator for the typed letters does not move forward but it actually receives the letters you type... If you make three errors and press enter, don’t panic, just restart the command)

- I let the thing run for two minutes and then when it stopped I closed the terminal.

- And there magic and hooray, VLC can read the commercial DVD!

All of this takes about ten minutes total (well I lost about forty trying to understand all this). I hope it works for you too. Now I can watch silly movies.

The solution to read commercial DVDs with Linux/Ubuntu is here:

No problem on my end... VLC is working very well...
