Acquired a DVD for testing.  Verified, didn't explore, that there is a problem with
k3b reading the DVD even with libdvdcss-1.4.2-1.fc28 installed.

However, if you don't need the DVD duplicated and can live with the contents ripped
to a video file you can simply use "HandBrake".  Seems I must have
done something like that when I purged my home of DVDs a few years back.

Anyway, I just used HandBrake to create a WINGSPAN.m4v from a DVD.  The DVD contains
2 videos and the HandBrake GUI's menu finds both and
you can select which one to work on from a drop-down menu.  I put the movie on my NAS
and accessed it from my TV over the network.  Also, I could,
put the file on a USB drive and plug that into my TV.  No need for a DVD player.

HandBrake is available in the rpmfusion-free repo and libdvdcss is in the
rpmfusion-free-tainted repo

https://www.amazon.com/Paul-McCartney-Wingspan-Intimate-Portrait/dp/B00005QJHL   (was
one of the DVD's a friend lent me)

Well, I have been looking for a version of HandBrake that will compile and run on
one of my older linux machines (F20), to no avail.
n But I found a friend who had SW on aMS Wndows machine, and he wass able
to copy it and put it on a flash drive for me.

Thanx to all who replied.
