dvdnav currently uses libdvdread, which is just the same as videolan. I am
not sure that we use the same version of libdvdread than videolan uses.
libdvdread then calls libdvdcss if present on your system for decrypting
dvds etc.

I would like to be able to download from the web a compiler for win32 which
will be used to build xine for win32 in much the same way as I download from
the web gcc for unix platforms.
I could then test and debug dvdnav on windows and linux.
At the moment, I only have a compiler for linux.

Cheers
James
