Hi, I also add problem playing some DVD. I don't konw if Johan's problem is the same as mine, but here is the solution for me. I had two DVD, that I could not play. I went to the mmpython cache and found that there was files in .../vfs/disc/ but also in .../vfs/metadata/. I deleted all these files, and now all works fine for me. I suppose the problem was due to an upgrade of mmpython and a cache which was not the same at it was supposed to be.
