Question Play DVD from network

Is there a way to play DVD from nextwork?
I can see my DVD (via WEP) but I dont know how to play them. I tried WMP + TMCMP but they both don't work

Although it may not work, as DVD's have a high bitrate that is tough to throw out at 11 mbps, you can use videolan to stream a dvd. Check out their website at http://www.videolan.org/

There are instructions there on how to setup the client and the server, as well as configure the streaming portion of the system. I do not believe that you need the server component, as the client has that integrated into it at this point. I have used it to stream movies (not DVD, though) across my network to another PC in the house running 54g, but not 802.11b.

I agree with Viallin, 802.11b is too weak to stream a DVD.. and does an axim have the power to decode it btw?
