Even without the -cache option, it seems that seek_chapter fails sometimes 
(not only the slave command seek_chapter, also if you press @ to go to the 
next chapter). It seems to work ok with the first chapters (title #1) of the 
dvd, after that mplayer crashes:

MPlayer interrupted by signal 11 in module: key_events
- MPlayer crashed by bad usage of CPU/FPU/RAM.
  Recompile MPlayer with --enable-debug and make a 'gdb' backtrace and
  disassembly. Details in DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports_what.html#bugreports_crash.
- MPlayer crashed. This shouldn't happen.
  It can be a bug in the MPlayer code _or_ in your drivers _or_ in your
  gcc version. If you think it's MPlayer's fault, please read
  DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports.html and follow the instructions there. We can't and
  won't help unless you provide this information when reporting a possible 
bug.

Tested with snapshot 070309.

BTW: why the latest snapshots don't have a version number? This is what 
mplayer says: MPlayer dev-SVN-rUNKNOWN-3.3.4 (C) 2000-2007 MPlayer Team
