Make sure you have all the prerequisites.

Also, you have to set libdvdcss to autoupdate or reconfigure it to download all the necessary files. If that still doesn't work, there is always fluendo.

You can also try another player that has included codecs like smplayer

I have DVDs with Videos that worked recently and now stopped working. Other Dvd do work?
