Do I need Ötvös Attilas version of dvdnav that is patched for MPlayer (available 
at http://dcxx.fw.hu/), or should I use the original libdvdnav from 
http://dvd.sourceforge.net/?

I tried applying the former, but the patch failed in multiple places, and I 
didn't feel like manually fixing them all at the time :)

Anything else needed to make it work? As I mentioned before, I can't really find 
any documents on how to enable this feature in Mplayer.
