what i did was get a Radeon 7000 Mac edition and a Pioneer DVR-110D and all was good, in OS 9.2.2 with the hacked DVD player on http://www.os9forever.com/
even tho the DVD playback is software (not needing a hardware decoder) the Radeon 7000 was still the only card that DVD's would play on.
now my drive in tiger didnt work real well cause i had to use xpostfacto and that causes issues with the optical drive in not being funtional. but in panther and jaguar it worked great.
i played my DVDs all the time on my Beige G3 with the hacked DVD player in OS 9 and OS X. i did upgrade the CPU to a G3 466 (stock B&W G3 450).the stock 266mhz G3 was almost not enought to play DVDs and upping the nram to 768mb also helped allot.
