Folks,
  I recently purchased the DVD "Free Solo".  When I try to play it on my Fedora 28 system it fails.  I get the following error "An error occurred The movie could not be read".  I did some web searching and I found that someone also encountered this error and that I needed to install libdvdcss for things to work.  I installed this library and rebooted and I still get the error.  I have verified that the DVD works by playing it on a Windows system. So what am I missing in order to get this to work?  When I put the DVD in it does read it, because I get the title page, but when I click on the play movie link I get the error.

The "Free Solo" DVD is from National Geographic, so I tried another DVD, also from National Geographic, and that one worked fine.  So the problem seems to be with how F28 processes the "Free Solo" DVD.

Any help is appreciated.

Paolo

Somebody already suggested to set the region for the DVD. I know on an older machine I had to do it and then it played even though I installed libdvdcss.

Install 'regionset' and then open a terminal and either as root or:

sudo regionset /dev/X (select your CD drive)
