Re: [xine-user] bug: can't play US DVD in Europe on 4year old US laptop

Yes. I set the region to 1. Today I also tried setting it to 2 and 4 just
to see, but without any success.

I had and still have installed libdvdcss 1.2.7. I got all my rpms for RH9
from freshrpms.net. They have a RH9 section, so I felt more comfortable
using those rpms.

It clearly is a problem decrypting the DVD. I thought I had sent the full
output from libdvdcss resulting from setting

export DVDCSS_VERBOSE=2

but I think that output got written to stderr and not to the log file I
sent. So I have attached it to this e-mail.


Thanks again,

	Henry
