Can't play DVD's

I can put a game disc in the drive and it works fine.

I've successfully used the DVD drive to burn cd's with brasero

I put in a comercial DVD and it doesn't seem to recognize it.

I have installed libdvdcss

papa@MSI-i7-Z:~$ sudo apt install libdvd-pkg
[sudo] password for papa:

papa@MSI-i7-Z:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure libdvd-pkg
libdvd-pkg: guest package [libdvdcss2/1.4.3-1~local] is already installed.


Have you yet run

sudo apt install ubuntu-restricted-extras

@Aravisian

I had not, that wasn't mentioned in the guide I found that had me install the other packages.

Now that I have, my comercial DVD's play as intended.

Thank You.
