Ok, my bad.

Ok, I'll test your version. I usually don't watch DVDs with MPlayer (I
prefer my comfy chair in front of the DVD player on the living room),
so it hopefully shouldn't matter.

Anyway, so far, so good, even though there is this problem and
probably others, it doesn't crash, which is really nice when testing
experimental stuff.

Keep up the good work,
