Try the MS TV Video Control. Its a COM control but its the best i've found so far. I think the DirectX 9 SDK installs it. If you need documentation, take a look in MSDN. There is also the MSWebDVD control, but this is intended for VB Scripting only and is therefore more limited.

You'll notice the MS TV Video Control is intended for use with TV Tuner Cards, but it can be used for anything that utilizes DirectShow, which includes DVD playback.

Ive found the WMP DVD playback to be unreliable in the past, so I use this which even seems to play DVD's that WMP struggles with (eg. The Matrix).
