what plugins? you don't mean the codecs to get it to play, do you?

i have it set up so it plays fine, but i've never installed plugins for it. what do they do?

Yes, the codecs I would just like the ability to play dvd's. I have tried using slaptget(sp?) and yast to install them with no luck, i even updated the installation sources using packman. I have tried several distros, cant get it to work on any of them.
any ideas would be most appreciated!

Sincerely,
