You can also try the VLC player, which will play DVDs:

Also, try running Software Update to see if it does anything for you now that you've installed the SuperDrive

Next time, please do a search before posting, as this topic has come up many times before.

Your search would have turned up this thread, and this one too.

Anyways, the most recommended solution is to use Pacifist to extract the DVD Player application from your OS X install CD.

DVD Player

I have the same problem, perhaps you could help me as well. I purchased Pacifist, but I cannot locate DVD Player on the Panter OSX Install discs. Perhaps it is in a place that I cannot see, like inside another folder. Thanks if you can give me more clues on this one, which I know should be easy but isn't for me. Ruth
