Thank you both. I downloaded and installed it, and the problem persists. I will have my wife check the physical media (her friend has a standalone dvdplayer, but may not work if the region is set, the dvd is European and I am in the US; could that be the source of trouble? I doubt it, Linux dvdplayers should not care about region).
