            Bug ID: 473682
           Summary: DVD ripping functionality requires installation of
                    external packages, libdvdcss2 and vaguely described
                    "transcode"
    Classification: Applications
           Product: k3b
           Version: 21.12.3
          Platform: Ubuntu
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: critical
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Video DVD

Created attachment 161138
  --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=161138&action=edit
a picture of the dialogue box provided by k3b describing missing transcode
prerequisite.

SUMMARY

"apt install libdvd-pkg" brings up dialogue that describes update process
involving running:       "sudo dpkg-reconfigure libdvd-pkg"
This solves the first prerequisite issue.

The second prerequisite issue is the transcoder which I could not solve. All
they specify is "transcode"
which is hardly enough to go on.
