In Ubuntu 9.10 you simply Click Applications > Ubuntu Software Center then in the search field click vlc and click install. or the old school way that will work with all the version of Ubuntu click System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager type in your password type in the quick search field VLC and then right click on VLC and then click on mark for installation and follow the prompts then click on apply when your done. Or you could just open up a terminal and type: sudo apt-get install vlc
Open a console/terminal, type ¨sudo apt-get install VLC¨, enter your password when he screen prompts you, then it ubuntu will get VLC and install it for you.
1. Open a terminal. 2. Navigate to the folder where you downloaded the RealPlayer installer. 3a. On Ubuntu and Ubuntu-based distros, enter "sudo chmod +x RealPlayer11Gold.bin" 3b. On most other distros, enter "su", and then "chmod +x RealPlayer11Gold.bin" 4. On Ubuntu / ubuntu-based, enter "sudo ./RealPlayer11Gold.bin". On most other distros, enter "./RealPlayer11Gold.bin." you may also want to entertain the idea of using VLC media player as it is a very nice and verbose option for playing these and more types of files.
There are many programs you can use. Windows has Media Player and several others, more popular is InterVideo WinDVD. In Mac, DVD Player plays it. In Linux distributions such as Ubuntu, (Google it) you can play them with VLC Player or Totem and many others. I recommend downloading VLC Player to play DVDs.
