No, it means that if you use --with-csslibdir=DIR then you will have
support for playing vobs directly, and then this is dependant on which
version of libcss is installed.  I recommend not using libcss.

If you use --enable-dvdread, it will look for an official libdvdread
installed as a library on your system and use that /instead/ of
libmpdvdkit2.  If you use no flags at all, then libmpdvdkit2 will be
used by default.  This is what you should do.

Correct, but this library will only be used within mplayer.  It is not
something you should install by itself.

No, not as far as I know.  But I believe that a level will increase the
amount of debugging info that goes into compiling.

I can't give you any support for this problem directly without knowing
more about what you are doing.  Try following the advice above and then
write back.
