[MPlayer-users] DVD Seek lockup - strange noise

[Jynx]

Well, it appears to be hardware related. I copied the first chunk with 
vobcopy and mplayer could play that off fine...

What I don't understand is why it's only mplayer causing this lockup. 
Two other players work, as well as vobcopy, so what is it that mplayer 
does differently? And why can the other titles from the same disk be played?
