Comment (by cehoyos):

 I see three different problems with the BD stream you provided:
 First, subtitle streams (0x120x) start late and are not detected by ffmpeg
 -i. The same happens for the DVD stream. Since (subtitle) streams can
 start at any point while playing back, but not every user wants a whole
 file to be scanned when starting ffmpeg, I do not think there is an easy
 solution. Note that the DVD stream plays as expected with mplayer -demuxer
 lavf -sid 0 (and ffplay with "t").
 At least ffmpeg -analyzeduration 2000000000 -i stream and ffplay stream
 -sst 0 should work, both currently fail.

 The second problem is that for the given BD sample, no streams are
 detected by the MPEG-TS demuxer, all have to be auto-detected (note the
 missing codec_tag information for the found streams in the output of
 ffmpeg -i). Since mplayer -demuxer mpegts works fine (it does not support
 auto-detection of video streams except MPEG-2), there seems to be a bug in
 FFmpeg's demuxer (not a regression, afaict). If you cut the sample so the
 subtitle streams start near the beginning of the file, subtitles are only
 shown as "Data: [0][0][0][0] / 0x0000".
 I worked around this problem with attached patch (autodetection of BD
 subtitles), it works fine with mplayer -demuxer lavf -sid 0, but probably
 has a significant performance impact (at the moment the stream starts).

 The third problem is that the BD subtitles are only shown for one frame by
 ffplay if you use the patch. I suspect this will not hit you when using
 third party applications (it cannot be reproduced with MPlayer), but is
 still noteworthy.
