Updated. Works for dvd://, only the functions to get current time and
length are disabled, since the MPlayer core currently assumes that these
functions are fast, which with this emulation they are no longer.
Total time could be fixed by just storing this value in a cache struct
variable and updating it from time to time.
Actually the same would be possible for current time, but that will not
be accurate anyway I think.
