I just installed 13.10 and now, cannot get ANY media --DVD nor CD-- to work. Have VLC installed, have PAROLE. Neither will play DVD.
Have run a plethora of sudo apt-get install
programs. Started with sudo apt-get install libdvdread4
...sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh
. DVD still doesn't work.
System is HP 2000-210US. Tried to rip a CD to music file, it said it ripped it, have yet to find where it's at? (NO, it's NOT in the music file--where it should be).
