Hi ... 

If by DVD support you mean reading DVD disks .. yes there is .. 

I have a DVS-600H DVD-ROM from DVS korea  (www.dvs.co.kr).

I can use it for CD's ... music CD's ... and DVD's

4.0-CURRENT has all the necessary ioctl's to read DVD-ROM disks and yes,
I was able to play a DVD movie with a software DVD program on FreeBSD,
have a look at www.opendvd.org ... they have a "how to" for FreeBSD
for playing DVD movies (if you have the ever so popular CSS-auth program
 - a long legal discussion NOT to follow :) )

Hope this helps :)

Reinier
