The problem is just that i dont seem to get mplayer to work . I get sound if i remember right and on the screen i see a lot of data .... but no picture

You'll need a plugin for xine because it doesn't support DeCSS natively (due to the fact that it's illegal).

Or you may find a version of xine that has a built-in support. I think I remember some links on their homepage, or you should just search the net for it, I'm sure you'll find it easily.
