Word from the big guys is no. There's a lot more hardware required than 
just the drive itself for DVD...mainly a decoding chipset which you'd be 
hard pressed to retrofit to a 760-series machine. If you use a Selectadock 
I or II you might want to investigate an the DVD Blaster from Creative Labs 
or some other product.
