I use xine. You might look here:
http://cambuca.ldhs.cetuc.puc-rio.br/xine/

Fine... just don't use the packages there – the xine-lib packages, at least,
are 'old' and have known security problems. Either use your distribution's
packaged version or some appropriate alternative (SuSE ⇒ packman, Fedora ⇒
livna; you'll need these if you want the bits which SuSE & RH think are
non-free) or compile it yourself.

The only packages I used were:

libdvdcss-1.2.8-2.network.i386.rpm
libxine1-1.1.5-070315.i686.rpm
xine-ui-0.99.6cvs-071123.i586.rpm
