[Preston] dvd playing under linux

[Richard Wellstead]

Does no-one else use mplayer here? (http://www.mplayerhq.hu). You'll 
have to read the README and compile it... there are some binaries 
elsewhere but I haven't tried these. mplayer rocks!! dvd playback is 
perfect, it has great keyboard shortcuts, supports tons of codecs etc.

For dvd reading to work properly you should install the latest copies of 
libdvdread and libdvdcss...

Regards,

 Richard
