[MPlayer-users] DVD-playing stops in 10 minutes

[Matias Griese]

My theory was wrong, that correction didn't help anything. I've tried to
figure out what goes wrong and playing seems to stop on every commercial
DVD in 10 minutes (block 300000-340000). My drive is Mitsumi DM 2000 TE
DVD-ROM. 

> I found where the bug is. 
> libdvdread-0.9.4/dvd_read/dvd_reader.c: static int initAllCSSKeys(...)
> 
> The function searches only files /VIDEO_TS/VTS_[0-99]_[0-1].VOB
> 
> So that must be the reason why libdvdread didn't find any keys between
> /VIDEO_TS/VTS_0_[2-8].VOB and my DVD drive didn't give permission to
