Is there standard DVD support yet? When I insert a DVD drive nothing including the File Manager thinks there's a disc in drive. I'm assuming that DVD Drives aren't supported yet or it's using a different device than what' default on my mac. Anybody know which device it uses out of /dev by default, assuming it works at all?

Yeah, same issue here.
I insert the disc - nothing happens. I go to the Video section, choose source, click on DVD Drive, and it asks me to insert disk (which is already in the drive).
DVDs play fine in the default OS X DVD Player.

0.1.3 didn't recognize the DVD in my Mac Pro's superdrive. I tried a clumsy method of manually adding my superdrive via the "add source" option, but it didn't work. I was able to manually add the VIDEO_TS folder of the DVD in my superdrive, but OSXBMC didn't play it.

elan's statement about dvd's may sound great in theory, but I have a DVD library I'd like to be able to play without workarounds. Besides, what is his suggestion? Rip all of our DVDs to the hard drive? I do plan to do some of that, but I've got way too many DVDs and not enough hard drive space and money to buy extra drives, so I hope he was just joking around...
If he does not own DVDs, I'm curious as to where he is getting his movies?
