I could not even play DVD on my Mandy 9.1rc2!! using
xmovie!!
Any pointers? Have to admit i did not perform any
tweaking, just installed the OS, with xmovie, popped
in the DVD, and expected it to work 
Any pointers i should be reading to enable this?
I might get some time to work on it this weekend.

_Thanks
