[vdr] Re: DVD plugin problem

[Marko Myllymäki <marko.myllymaki@sci.fi>]

Excuse me for asking possibly stupid question, but what is libdvdread
anyway. I only have installed a52dec-0.7.4, libdvdnav-0.1.9 and
libdvdcss-0.7.4 for using with VDR and DVD. I also verified, that there are
no such packages installed with my RH 7.3 distro.

Olivier you mentioned about porblems with menu on some DVD, which I also
have and with subtitles, which are only shown fraction of a second.

I have had  similar problems of freezing pictures, but they were related to
DMA on DVD. Verify this by first checking DMA usage by using hdparm.
