There's a legal problem with it: DVD viewers, at least of encrypted DVD's
like most commercial ones, require the libdvdcss library or its equivalent,
and that's been ruled illegal for a bunch of nasty
Hollywood-industry-protecting and fairly nonsensical reason. At last look,
thee was *NO* legal player for encrypted DVD's.

That said, the "Xine" package has a lot of fans, and is available at:
