I assumed that Linux DVD players were still bound by the region encoding
on the drive, but ICBW; I don't bother playing DVDs on my PC as I've got a
"proper" DVD player downstairs.

Of course, the next question for the OP is - Can you play PAL (region 2)
DVDs on your PC?  Is it just the "NTSC" ones that you can't play, or is
it all commercial DVDs?
