[nmglug] VLC,DVD,error.

[Brian O'Keefe]

Is this just a proprietary issue? I know that I can't open some DVDs and 
I try different players. The default vid player for my Ununtu 18.04 
seems to have better luck than VLC. What happens if you right click on 
the DVD image and select "open with" and choose another vid player?
