I just tried to put the classic movie "Willow" into my DVD drive. I got a prompt that indicated a multimedia cd had been inserted, and would I like to open it with Kaffeine. "Sure!" I said, but then Kaffeine complained it didn't have the codec... A message appeared stating "This version of Xine lacks support for playing DVD discs for legal reasons", and gave a reference to a URL for more detail (http://portal.suse.com/sdb/en/2003/09/xine_dvd.html). So, it looks as though there are no DVD movie players available.
I use it pretty frequently to watch DVDs on my linux desktop.You can watch it under Kaffeine, but you need the libdvdcss librariries etc, you can get them from here http://cambuca.ldhs.cetuc.puc-rio.br/xine/ I have gone through this a couple of times now and gives good results. I have to enable DMA on the DVD player.

Would it be possible for some one to demo what is needed in a mini-prezzy at the next meeting, and how to set up such a solution? A lot of our members use Suse, and it seems to be one of it's weak points when you compare it to Mandrake which I understand supports dvd playing right out of the box.
