I'm using vlc (videolan), but it doesn't compile out of the box especially
if you've installed gnome/gtk via ports. Ports installs in .../gtk12
.../glib12 etc. while vlc looks in .../gtk and .../glib etc.

This is the "howto" I got on the vlc-list:

I'm still working on getting all the parts lined up to make it compile.

Thus far:
In plugins/sdl/vout_sdl.c I've changed the SDL include to:
	#include <SDL11/SDL.h>
In Makefile.opts, I've changed CFLAGS_GTK = to:
	CFLAGS_GTK = -I/usr/X11R6/include/gtk12 -I/usr/local/include/glib12

I'm still getting syntax errors in /usr/include/netinet/in.h when
compiling
plugins/vout_sdl.c.  So, I've removed sdl from the build.

Everything else has compiled and I am now playing with the gnome-vlc
interface
trying to get it to play a DVD.

I haven't succeeded on sdl. But it works with gnome/gtk, though quite
unstable. And the sound is quite crappy, don't know why.

Xine on the other hand works great, less overhead (50-75% of that of vlc),
though I've yet to find at css-plugin that works with BSD...
