[MPlayer-users] libdvdread: Can't seek to block

[Zennon Poliboda]

Hi all.

This seems to be the old problem as ggogle tells a lot about this but 
anyways can't find the solution.

The problem is:

1. I insert a DVD into the drive, I issue the command:

silverdr at vessa:~$ mplayer -dvd 1

and I get the results as below.

2. The same DVD plays OK in a standalone player

3. The same DVD plays OK in _the same_ drive in _the same_ pc when using 
a windowz player... :-(

4. Some other DVDs play more or less flawlessly using mplayer.

Any clues?
