FreeBSD doesn't have a /dev/dvd. Probably xine expects it to be your DVD 
device by default. You could try to tell xine to use another device, or 
maybe you can make a symlink from your DVD device by doing this:

	% cd /dev
	% ln -s acd1c dvd

(I have no DVDs lying around so I can't say if this works or not)
