 I've installed mplayer and ogle, and have broken the ML original install of

 All of which are supposed to be excellent DVD players.

 I can play .avi and .mpeg file happily with either ogle or mplayer, but
 they stutter when they play DVD's and ogle quickly gets out of sync -- with
 the sound often off be as much as 8 seconds before I quit.

 Anybody got any good tips for tuning a 1GB 1GHz Celeron ML 8.2 system to
 play DVD's without stutter or sync problems?

I use ogle 0.8.2 and it plays DVDs fine on a Celeron 633. The machine 
also has a TNT2 video card. If I don't install the Nvidia drivers, then DVDs 
don't play well at all. What kind of video card do you have? And do you have 
accelerated drivers installed? Also, what version of ogle? The 0.8.2 release 
was supposed to fix the out-of-sync audio problems.

 videolan is REALLY REALLY BETA still.  can't stop a playing track just
 pause it.  can't change to a new track without exiting the prog and
 restarting it.  I could never get xine to work either.  It installed ok
 but I couldn't get it to play anythign but the occasional mpg from the
 web.  Similarly OMS wouldn't compile on my system either.  rg.  I'm
 gonna through a party when I can play a dvd in linux.

Abe,
Now I can see codified dvds with xine and not codified with videoland, but
as you comment, videoland is beta; I had the same problems as you with it.
Oms need some news libs that aren't still in Mandrake 7.2; I tryed yesterday
to download they and install, but was problematic for lots of dependencies,
anyway a lot of people said that OMS is not so good.
