Could try the Wyse 9650 but you need codecs and it struggles with any serious video and sound.

Next on is the new Wyse Video Clients... Like a sky digital box I think,
run XPe, can plug into projectors, has a remote control and can work as
a thin client (obviously).

Might be equivalents in the Neoware world too.

Well as to the codec thing, VLC should play the DVD - it's what I use,
the odd time when I actually look at DVDs on my PC (normally, just very
briefly before decrypting, and re-encoding to other formats).

I think he means running it directly from the thin client itself (DVD
attached)

Bitrate for commercial or DVD quality mpeg video I would have
thought would be largely untenable over the wire to a thin
client session.
