All of it together. You need all the codecs as well as the css
libraries.  Xine needs access to several of the parts I posted and the
simple yum command with the dvd* libdvd* and xine* packages simply
worked for me.

It is likely that not all the packages are needed, but drive space is
cheap and having them all helps prevent missing parts that may be
needed.
