Do you have in your /etc/apt/sources.list a line like:
deb http://debian-multimedia.org etch main
You see, the commercial DVDs use non-free encodings that can't be used
in debian proper. So debian-multimedia has packages. If you look at
the depencencies and recommends of the DVD playing packages (and their
libs), if you aren't using debian-multimedia you may see some that say
"unavailable". (I use aptitude interactive; I don't know how to look at
this from the command line).
