Sure about this?
I only get the selected angle when dumping a stream... since (AFAIK) the 
angles and information about how they are stored and where they lie are 
in the IFO files, once would not be happy with a multi-angle vob... 
Years ago, when you had to specify the css keys with mplayer (and 
couldn't play a title, but only the vob files one by one... ah these 
were the times...) I played the german Star wars episode II DVD, which 
features multi angle at the beginning, and playing directly the VOB 
files from the disc (instead of the dvd://x interface) you got approx. 1 
second of english title scroll, then one second of german title scroll, 
then again english and again german etc. pp. Until the streams finally 
got together for the normal stuff (after the title scroll).
