Martin Olsson (mnemo) wrote : totem fails to play DVD movie

I got this DVD disc from my brother. When I plug it in totem starts but it shows only a black screen (no error message). I can press play and then it shows a black screen and ticks a few seconds, but no movie ever starts. Movie works fine in VLC with menus and all. If I start totem separately and manually choose "open disc XYZ" in the movie menu of totem then it complains about codec instead (which makes a little more sense but still I'd rather if it just said "proprietary/restricted is bad" and then let me download the codecs?).
