DVD cannot be opened

[lineinthesand]

When I try to open a certain DVD, I get these strange error messages and the content cannot be read:

The DVD can be played fine on Windows, so it doesn't seem to be broken.

I highly recommend that you try the libdvdread from videolan: http://www.videolan.org/developers/libdvdnav.html

It has been a very long time since I have maintained this fork.
