use a third party player, e.g. dvdx. dont bother with trying to get xbmc native player to play dvds.
xbox v1.6b - spider v1.0 - wd 160gb - s-video & optic output - evox - xbmc

none afaik.
but please remember, there's a new dvdplayer being developed for xbmc, thus not much energy (none infact) is spent on the current one. so if you want semi-functional dvd functionality, go with a build that has this (maybe 1.1.0 point) and not later cvs builds.
