OK, the problem is, Fluendo doesn't sell a codec, but a full-fledged DVD player that competes with Totem. So we can't install the required codecs transparently. Something to check, though, is whether installing their DVD player is enough to allow GStreamer apps like Totem to read encrypted DVDs too. I suppose it's the case.

This would mean the Fluendo DVD player package could be technically advertised as a plugin, which would allow it to be installed from Totem. Users would be able to use Totem as usual, or start the newly installed Fluendo player if they prefer.
