DVD skipping on VLC 1.0

[bemymonkey]

Hi there,

I've just noticed that a few scenes in my freshly ripped copy of Ratatouille (PAL DVD) skips in VLC. At certain scenes VLC just cuts out a few seconds of the movie. Media Player Classic doesn't do this, but I'd like to use VLC because the picture is better (MPC seems to suck for anamorphic DVD)... any ideas?

The DVD plays fine on a standalone player as well...

[VLC_help]

Does Tools -> Messages... (set Verbosity to 2) show some errors in those problematic sections?

Thanks for the tip, I'll try that in a bit.

Hmmm, looks like I'm getting lots of "PTS is out of range (XXXXXX) dropping buffer" warnings at those points. What could be causing this?

Thanks for the help so far!

Those are generic sync messages. So file might have some issue, there might some issue in caching/reading or something else.

Hmmm, I've ripped a few more DVDs, and the only one causing problems is Ratatouille... Looks like it's because of the DVD itself. Strange that some programs play it without problems though...

Thanks for your help.
