for playing .dat files in Linux... download mplayer which eats anything given to it.... donot forget to download even the codecs and store them in usually /usr/local/lib/codecs, although I prefer to use /usr/local/lib/mplayer/codecs and then specify the directory when compiling with 'configure --with-codecsdir=/usr/local/lib/mplayer/codecs'.
That's also another thing, compile mplayer from source, it's good practice to do so, and make sure you have the codecs before you compile it.
