Not a solution for Dragon Player, but I use Kaffeine, with xine selected
as the default engine on my Laptop (Fedora 10, KDE4 - yes I need to
upgrade!).

That "just works". You can either click on the appropriate part of the
picture with the mouse, or you can use the cursor keys to scroll around
and select the one you want.

So a solution if nobody else can solve it would be to use Kaffeine and
Xine instead.
