VLC skips frames on DVD when it reaches the next chapter in the movie

I've been experiencing an issue with one of my DVD-s. Whenever it reaches a point when the next chapter starts in the movie, it freezes and skips some seconds.
I already tried to set the caching to a higher number, disabling hardware acceleration and unchecking the "skip frames" option in the video settings but none of these helped.

I've used the debugging messages, apparently the problems are the following:

main warning: clock gap, unexpected stream discontinuity
main warning: feeding synchro with a new reference point trying to recover from clock gap
main error: Timestamp conversion failed
main error: Could not convert timestamp (number) for FFmpeg
main warning: early picture skipped
main debug: discarded audio buffer

Is there a solution to this? The version of VLC I'm using is 3.0.20 Vetinari and I'm using Windows 10.

We need the whole full log, from the very beginning to the very end. Please open Tools -> Messages (set Verbosity to 2) before you start the playback, and then paste the full resulting log here or on Pastebin.com or on Justpaste.it if it's too long.

Does it occur with all DVDs or just some of them ? In the latter case, please give us the EAN-13 / UPC codes of the problematic DVDs.

So it's only one DVD, this one ?
