Thanks. That was a ggod question. It is, now.

It plays on the DVD recorder it was recorded on. I don't have another
DVD player on hand.
the DVD drive I have on this machine (an ASUS EEEPC) is an LG USB DVD
drive.

Did that. No joy; Details follow.
Opening vlc from the command line, and attempting to open /dev/dvd (the
choice it gives me):

and in vlc's message window:
Playback failure:

Your input can't be opened:
VLC is unable to open the MRL 'dvd:///dev/dvd'. Check the log for details.
Now there appears to be no /dev/dvd, as tetified by ls in another shell
window:
hendrik@notlookedfor:~$ ls -l /dev/dvd
ls: cannot access /dev/dvd: No such file or directory
hendrik@notlookedfor:~$
So the first step seems to be to find out why there's no /dev/dvd.
But I did find a device /dev/video0.
hendrik@notlookedfor:~$ ls -l /dev/video0
crw-rw----+ 1 root video 81, 0 Sep 24 10:48 /dev/video0
hendrik@notlookedfor:~$
Not sure what /dev/video0 is, but I tried it. Typing it into the open
media dialog gets me no further:

Not sure where to go next. An I missing device drivers? Do I need a
kernel module for the UDF file system? Some other packages?
