1 Hi,
2
3 I remember something about the 'dvd.css_decryption_method' setting in xine.
4 Its on the 'media' tab in the xine configuration dialog box (you have to the
5 configuration experience level to master of the known universe on the GUI tab
6 to see it.). It has three possible settings key, disc and title. I think it
7 defaults to 'key', which works most of the time. Give the movie a go with it
8 set to 'disc' or 'title'. I have got movies to play with 'title' when they
9 wouldn't play with 'key'.
10
11 Hope that helps!
