Just to elaborate a little on that issue, the problem is generally caused by the DVD drive not reading as fast as it can. AFAIK Mplayer and xine both handle this perfectly when stand alone from what I remember when this problem affected me, however freevo didn't set the drive parms at all. It only plays for a few seconds and stops as it pauses to read from the disc, at least that is what happened to me, and that fixed it up sweet. You can find that tip on the xine performance page.
