Go here and follow the instructions under Fedora Core 4 (Stentz) / Yum.
All steps need to be done as root.

http://rpm.livna.org/configuration.html

Then run this command as root:

yum install xine libdvdcss

Logout from the root account.

Now click on Applications / Sound & Video and launch Xine Media Player.
Load up the DVD into your PC. In Xine, click on the DVD tab. Enjoy.
Press the F key to maximize/minimize the video screen ("F" stands for
"full screen"). Press the G key to toggle on/off the GUI interface at
any time.

P.S.: You may also go here...

ftp://ftp5.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/releases/codecs/

...then download the all-200*.tar.bz2 package then extract all the
individual files within to /usr/lib/win32
After this step Xine will be able to play pretty much any audio/video
file you will find on the Internet.
