I was trying to play Lord Of The Rings - The Fellowship Of The Ring. The basic dvd version, nothing fancy, not the Blu-Ray version.
I don't know what else to tell you.
Any/All help will be appreciated.
Thank You

Did you install the Medibuntu repo? http://www.medibuntu.org/
I think you will need to install libdvdcss2.

You might try installing the Ubuntu Restricted Extras package.

Do you have libdvdcss2 installed? I think that it's required to show
most of commercial movies on Linux.
For more information, see

NOTICE! I am on mobile broadband with very limited time, so I cannot
read emails very much.
The best time to contact me is probably week ends when I have better
connectivity with good luck.

Can't play DVD movies
In order for me to use VLC or any other program for that mattern I havr to choose /dev/sr0 (on my laptop at least) hope that this helps and that you have solved the problem. I think you can use gparted (or "disk utility") to check what your computer is assigning the dvd to. Great movie choice btw!
