For DVD''s, anything will do. Supposedly though you need to use some DeCSS to get it to work which is "illegal" in the US because of the totally unconstitutional DMCA. Not that that means you still can''t find it

Anyway, as for MP3 players, try either XMMS (X Multimedia System) or Freeamp. I don''t remember a URL for either, but just search on google or something, and I''m sure you''ll find it.

thx for your answer





xmms rules that was exactly what i was looking for...



But i dont understand this thing with DeCSS... why is it illegal to watch dvds under linux??? I mean there are enough players for windows, and those are even sold for much money...

There''s one called LinDVD I believe, which is by the same company as WinDVD. I don''t know if it''s free though, and how it is.
