Submission + - Good linux distro for Mac Powerbook DVP?

So many distros, so little patience. As a longtime windows user with only work related experience with Linux I find myself overwhelmed with the knowledge it seems I must acquire to make an intelligent decision regarding which distro to choose. I'd like to just get it done and not look back. So, specifically, I'd like to play DVDs and video files on the Mac hardware running Linux through a standard television using the s-video and audio out. No frills necessary, performance is king. I believe the hardware can manage just fine with regard to my need for quality (or lack thereof). I expect to burn an ISO, install, grab a copy of VLC of the net, pop some corn and enjoy. Any suggestions?"
