   Out of 13 DVDs, two cannot be played on my laptop, it seems.
   I have absolutely no idea why those two fail. One has never been used before.
   I do have 'libdvdcss' installed. The other DVDs work just fine.
   I cannot find anything that those two DVDs have that the others don't have.
   The DVDs are recognized just fine, but it is impossible to play them...

   Does anyone have any idea what might be going on?

     MPV gives the errors:
     "[dvdnav] Error getting next block from DVD 1 (Error reading NAV packet.)"
     and
     "No video or audio streams selected."

     All the media players give some errors like "libdvdread: Error cracking CSS key for /VIDEO_TS/VTS_02_1.VOB (0x0036e5fa)" as well.

     @storydragon if you can't even get the individual files to play then the DVDs might be damaged.

     @Polychrome
     Yep, I had other DVDs that did not work through Mplayer nor MPV that worked perfectly fine in VLC, but the two problematic DVDs do not even work in VLC...
