    not going to happen unless you can build your own controller. those lcds are usually custom-built for the dvd player.

    Yes you need the datasheet, then you can determine which LCD controller is suitable and find the application note to build the circuit. Then the question arises whether any existing LCD app can support it, otherwise you'd have to write your own software too.
    If it's one of those small DVD status displays then don't bother, for a couple of euro's you can buy a (bigger too) ready to solder character LCD, which is supported by almost every LCD app.
    On the other hand yes it's much more fun getting stuff like that to work :)
