Have you tried a different disc? I have heard reports that the internal 
player will not play discs with errors (Like the ones in some copy 
protected discs). Try ripping it on a windows machine with dvddecriptor 
or dvdshrink  and try playing the rip.

For me the default way to get to the root menu is the 'm' key for menu 
then select the first option in the list.
