[MPlayer-users] chapter list bug

I took a stab at fixing this, and as far as I can tell I was correct about
the off-by-one error.  In stream_dvd.c, line 617:

for(i=0; i<pgc->nr_of_programs-1; i++)

That will effectively stop the loop at 2 elements prior to the end.  I'm
pretty sure you'd want to stop it at only one element from the end.  Either
of these would work:

for(i=0; i<pgc->nr_of_programs; i++)
for(i=0; i<=pgc->nr_of_programs-1; i++)

I'm attaching a patch that fixed the issue, at least on my system.  I'd
greatly appreciate any feedback concerning confirmation of the issue or
acceptance of the patch.  I'm writing a DVD audio ripping script right now
that relies on mplayer, and I need to know whether this will be fixed before
I release it.  :-)

Oh, and I realize that the MPlayer version info I provided below isn't very
helpful.  I appear to be using the CVS version from 03/21/2007, based on
filename of the archive.  This is the current stable package for amd64
provided by Gentoo.

Thanks again.
