DVD Player - could a player get any worse?

Or maybe its the way it interacts with OS X 10.4.5. Some of the recent DVD's I rented play fine then freeze - that wouldn't be so bad except it freezes DVD Player and I can't quit it. Sometimes the whole computer locks up.

Is there another player out there for playing DVD's?

Mplayer and VLC (VideoLan Client) are two other options for playing DVDs, though your problems sound like they are caused by either scratched discs or a failing DVD drive.
