Where can I find Debian packages to run DVD movies in synaptic ?

I can't seem to get win32 codec to play DVD's in Dragon Player and other programs like it...

In fact I can't get any movie codecs to work on Debian....

So does anyone know where in Synaptic I can find codecs or any packages to get DVD's to play on my machine?  

Thank you....

libdvdcss is what you want, but it's not in the regular repos for legal reasons
