    How about OpenDVD.org? Have you tried them yet?
    Or 7thzone.com?

    http://www.videolan.org/

    opensource mpeg and dvd player for lots of platforms
    including *nix
    also includes client for home use
    and server for broadcasting
    i havent tried it on any *nix platform
    but i have tried it on MS 2k
    i upgraded from 98 to 2k and my dvd player that came with my box didn't include a free upgrade
    so i found this one
    opensource kicks ass

    I'd also like to recommend videolan. I've been using it for some time now, and things are really smoothing out with the newer versions. Very nice overall, and I like the ability to play DVDs on one box, but watch them on several (it's a package designed to do networked video with a master box and a bunch of Xwindows slaves).

    I just tried the Windows version and it didn't run too well. I will download the Linux version tommorow. Which packages do I download from here?http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download.html
