Can't play DVD (memory leak?)

[mitch_feaster]

I can't play a DVD (Toy Story 1) with vlc. Other DVDs work fine and this same DVD plays fine in mplayer.

The output on my terminal looks like a libdvdread bug, but since (I believe) mplayer uses libdvdread as well I thought I'd post it here:

Code: Select all

*** libdvdread: CHECK_VALUE failed in ifo_read.c:1251 *** *** for vts_ptt_srpt->title[i].ptt[j].pgn != 0 *** *** libdvdread: CHECK_VALUE failed in ifo_read.c:1980 *** *** for pgci_ut->nr_of_lus < 100 *** Killed

This was immediately after rm -rf'ing ~/.dvdcss. I was getting a different error message in addition to the failed CHECK_VALUE's before that.

After I get this message my vlc process keeps allocating memory until my system runs out of memory and kills vlc.

Any ideas?


EDIT
Turns out mplayer won't play this dvd with

Code: Select all

mplayer -dvd-device /dev/sr0 dvdnav://

, but it does play it with

Code: Select all

mplayer -dvd-device /dev/sr0 dvd://

so I guess this really might not be a vlc issue...

force the no-menu options when playing with VLC.
