[SOLVED]Unable to run DVD

#1 Post by Vitekk »

Greetings

I'm trying to run a (original)DVD with Vlc but won't work.

Code: Select all

vitekk@Ghost:~$ vlc
VLC media player 2.2.7 Umbrella (revision 2.2.7-0-g6e32381286)
[000055650970f148] core libvlc: Running vlc with the default interface. Use 'cvlc' to use vlc without interface.
libdvdnav: Using dvdnav version 5.0.3
libdvdread: Encrypted DVD support unavailable.

************************************************
libdvdnav: DVD Title: SIMPSONS_SEASON2_DISC2
libdvdnav: DVD Serial Number: 2CB0814E
libdvdnav: DVD Title (Alternative): SIMPSONS_SEASON2_DISC2
libdvdnav: DVD disk reports itself with Region mask 0x00f70000. Regions: 4
[00007fed340009b8] core input error: ES_OUT_RESET_PCR called
[00007fed340009b8] core input error: ES_OUT_RESET_PCR called
I tried to change the region with regionset using this info:

Code: Select all

vitekk@Ghost:~$ sudo regionset /dev/sr0
[sudo] password for vitekk: 
Sorry, try again.
[sudo] password for vitekk: 
regionset version 0.1 -- reads/sets region code on DVD drives
Current Region Code settings:
RPC Phase: II
type: SET
vendor resets available: 4
user controlled changes resets available: 2
drive plays discs from region(s): 4, mask=0xF7

Would you like to change the region setting of your drive? [y/n]:y
Enter the new region number for your drive [1..8]:4
New mask: 0xFFFFFFF7, correct? [y/n]:y
Region code set successfully!
But nothing changed
I saw that "DVD disk reports itself with Region mask 0x00f70000" outputed on vlc is different than the "New mask: 0xFFFFFFF7, correct? [y/n]:y" outputed on regionset

Also, "user controlled changes resets available: 2" is this a problem??? I have limited chances?

That should indeed solve your problem but why did you run the second part of the command? It should be already configured as part of the apt install process. Advice from somewhere on the internet?
