Recently, I found out that some DVD authoring tools use some on disc 
constructs that crash the navigation engine. To get some detailed information 
on whats going on change the Makefile and add a "DEFINES  += -DVMDEBUG"
just after "DEFINES  += -DDVDSUPPORT". It should read then:

ifdef DVD
DEFINES  += -DDVDSUPPORT
DEFINES  += -DVMDEBUG
DEFINES  += -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE # needed by libdvdread
SHLIBS   += -ldvdread
OBJS     += dvd.o decoder.o vm.o vmcmd.o
endif
