How to play commercial DVDs on lenovo t-500 laptop? I have Ubuntu 12.04, all updates

Could not read dvd despite having restricted extras

I tried the following, but VLC does not play DVDs.

 sudo apt-get install libdvdnav4 libdvdread4 gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly

 sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh

Try this 

sudo wget --output-document=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/$(lsb_release -cs).list && sudo apt-get --quiet update && sudo apt-get --yes --quiet --allow-unauthenticated install medibuntu-keyring && sudo apt-get --quiet update

And then

sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2

Followed by

sudo apt-get install w32codecs

If you are on 64 bit install w64codecs instead however.

Open VLC Player. Press on Ctrl+D (or choose Media --> Open DISC). From there choose your Media type then click on Play. See pic
