Howto: Auto-play DVD in Xine with KDE

In KDE Control Center - Periphals - Storage Media, click Add
Click on the red X to change icon
Name it `Play in Xine media player`
In the left panel, click on DVD Video Disk
Click the right arrow to add selection to the right panel under `display service for`
In the command box, type xine dvd:// %u
Click OK
In the drop-down box next to Medium Types, select DVD Video Disk
Click on Xine
Hit `toggle as auto action` button

Pop in a DVD and enjoy!

Here's an eject DVD script that kills Xine and ejects the DVD.
Name it ejectdvd.sh and use your window manager to bind it to a hotkey:
