I believe the PowerBook G4 400 should be fast enough to play full screen
DVDs assuming you have DMA enabled on the DVD drive and that you have
video acceleration enabled on your graphics card.

Check that your /etc/X11/XF86Config (or XF86Config-4) file, in the
Section "Device", has Driver specified as "ati" to use the accelerated
ATI Xv driver.  You may also need to tell xine once to use the hardware
accelerated Xv driver instead of the much slower software Xshm driver
by running xine once as "xine -V Xv".
