The freebsd port of libdvdread is 0.8.0, which uses libcss; however, the newer version of libdvdread is 0.9.x, which uses libdvdcss, which does work on FreeBSD (there's a port too). I checked that libdvdread 0.9.2 does compile on FreeBSD, and then the mplayer port builds properly against this libdvdread. However, I don't have any dvds to check that it can play them. If I try with an empty drive, it gives an error message from libdvdcss (the FreeBSD port) about not being to get the encryption label. So mplayer is linking to libdvdread, which in turn is linking to libdvdcss, properly. You could try it out, I think it may work.
