Hi,
here my settings :
but when I insert a video DVD nothing happens.
I have to browse to the DVD through Nautilus and there it suggests me VLC.
Seems like DVD is not mounted at first ?

No one ?
Should I try without the « places applet » ?
I don’t use VLC … just wondering - if you use Disks and use the “mount at system startup” option for the DVD drive - does VLC then automount?
You must install the DVD playing software pkg!
EVERY time I reinstall a distro, I forget to go through this nonsense, and also: installing the driver to allow exfat USBs. Ugh.
Thanks Jason but it’s ok for playing the dvd.
Problem here is : when I insert the dvd, it is not automatically launched-and-played through my video player software.
If I manually browse through files explorer to the folders on the dvd, I can play them.
( and it’s not nonsense, it’s a license problem : those decrypting utilities can’t be distributed by vendors/distro-maintainers, they even are forbidden in some countries. Quite a similar issue for exfat. )
… fair enough, but I still wish it wasn’t an issue I had to resolve every single time. Isn’t Linux pals with Windows these days?
Well, setting dvd-player-device as automount through disks does not change anything.
I’d expect VLC ( or any other video-player set to be default ) to open automatically right after inserting that kind of DVD. Or at least the files explorer to open automatically.
I think this is the same wish here → https://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?id=2046490 ( french )
Strange, setting automount works for me… I use GNOME MPV as my video player.
Try setting all DVD options in Autres medias (other media?) to VLC.
