I've played quite a few DVDs before, but with one I hired today I get the message in Xine (or Kaffeine): The source seems encrypted, and can't be read. Your DVD is probably crypted. According to your country laws (sic), you can or can't install/use libdvdcss to be able to read this disc, which you bought. (Media stream scambled/encrypted) I have libdvdcss installed, xine is refusinig to use it. This is odd. For a start I don't know how Xine knows what country I live in (the uk) and I think the message was more aimed at people living in the US, where, by my understanding, copyright law favours large companies more. Is there a country setting in Xine, or an option somewhere to tell it to ignore really stupid laws? The relavent packages I have installed are: xine 0.99.2-1.1.fc2.fr libdvdcss 1.2.8-4.1.fc2.fr kaffeine 0:0.43-0.lvn.1.b.2
