I've never had any problems with either Mplayer or Xine compiled very every 
useful options, including libdvdcss (access dvd without caring for the 
encryption). 
One of my FreeBSD machines is a HTPC connected to my TV and I use it to play 
dvds and never encountered problems (other than media/quality-related).
