Problem reading video DVDs

When playing a region-coded video DVD for the first time using a Linux player, you may get errors such as the following: 

libdvdread: Invalid IFO for VMGM (VIDEO_TS.IFO)

This is caused by the DVD driver's region never having been set. Use regionset to set some region and retry. It doesn't mattter which region code you choose, but note that unlike most Linux video players, Windows DVD players typically require the drive's region matching the disc's region, and the drive's region can be set at most 4 times.
