Alternative source for libdvdcss2

The libdvdcss2 library can be installed from upstream by using the libdvd-pkg package.

This seems like a better option than using deb-multimedia.org

Any thoughts?

Thanks to @stevepusser over at FDN for the information.

Re: Alternative source for libdvdcss2

I used a deb package from VideoLan, as suggested by the Debian Wiki...
http://download.videolan.org/debian/

It's confusing though, because those packages are from 2013. So I think I used the one from "testing" (I'll have to check when I boot into my main partition).

That's good info, though. Thanks!

Re: Alternative source for libdvdcss2

libdvdcss2 was the primary reason for me having deb-multimedia.org in my sources.list. If I can get that from upstream, then I see no real reason to keep it.

I also use the offering from VideoLan via their repo.  I perused the different folders in the link provided by hhh and the version is the same for stable, testing, and unstable; v1.2.13.
