    Most distros don't include libdvdcss2 by default (for legal reasons). If you want it, you have to install it from an online repo or use a distro such as Linux Mint.

    Best thing is to type in all the relevant keywords in Google, and then read the most interesting articles from the output.

    Experiment according to the reports from those other users who reported about how they where able to troubleshoot the same matter/problem.

    Sabayon is one of the distros that comes with libdvdcss included. You'd just have to try it for yourself to determine if it fits your needs.
