There are still informations that playing DVDs doesn't work? Where?
The base system supports everything that's necessary since 2001-09-25.
mplayer from ports does fine for most people, and ogle does fine, too.

This is interesting...you don't get full frame rate without the -cache
option??
A celeron 500 should be fast enough. The 'dual' doesn't matter here,
mplayer doesn't do threading, so it runs on only one CPU.
Which graphics board do you use to watch?
