The Fluendo DVD player, which is commercial non-free software, should install ok on RHEL6/CentOS6/SL6 (I've run it on F12/F13/F14 successfully).  It is the most easily available fully legal DVD playback software available for Linux today.  There are others, but I personally have and use the Fluendo player.  It's pretty spartan, though.  Their 'media center' also does DVD playback, and while I have purchased it, getting it to work in a way that I would prefer has been somewhat 'challenging' up to now.

And you've already been pointed to the 'alternative' from rpmfusion/livna.
