Give also Xine a try. What exactly is the problem? If it is DVD decoding, try installing libdvdcss from 
medibuntu repository, by following their instructions, like, "it is your legal responsibility to make sure 
that the software you are installing can be legally used in your country and for your intended purpose".


Medibuntu is an interesting repository, because it also provides google earth etc.
