[vdr] small problems with latest DVD-nav-patch

[boesch@agrocom.com]

Hello list,
there are a few problems left with the latest nav-patch. When I try to play the
DVD "Der Exorzist - Die neue Fassung" replay stops after the Warner logo and vdr
exits. If I press "3" early enough I can access the menu but replay stops after
selecting an item in a submenu like "Languages" and vdr exits. So it isn't
possible to play this DVD at all because I can't use the chapter menu either.
There are no errors reported in the logs. I will verify if this behaviour can be
reproduced with other Warner DVDs. By the way, with older versions of DVD-nav
"Exorzist" ran fine.
Another point is that AC3-over-DVB-S with DVDs is still buggy. With 3.2-sound
everything runs fine for a couple of minutes but then suddenly somehow the
non-PCM-bit gets lost and I nearly get a heart attack because of the noise
coming from the speakers. Thank goodness my speakers weren't damaged. I had this
problems with several DVDs but always used subtitles when it happened. I will
verify if this happens without subtitles too.
When I play DVDs with other formats than 3.2 (e.g. 2.1) the picture is still
stuttering a little bit. It is not as bad as before the latest patch but still
noticable.
The AC3-over-DVB-S problems aren't too bad for me because I still use ALSA but I
look forward to the day I can sell my fm801 soundcard at ebay :-)
