[mythtv-users] Issues with Internal DVD Player

Hi all, 

I just picked up a few DVD's and generally I haven't had problems with
the internal DVD player, however, I have a dvd 'Sahara', that when it
starts plays the intro chapter over and over unless I go (m)enu, goto
root menu on the DVD.  Then I get the DVD menu.  When I select to play
the movie, the Mythfrontend seg faults and crashes.

Using mplayer, it plays the movie - I don't get the menu though, which
gives me access to other parts of the DVD and is much easier for my wife
to use.

I'm running:
MythTV Version   : 16468
MythTV Branch    : tags/release-0-21
Library API      : 0.21.20080304-1
Network Protocol : 40
Options compiled in:
 linux profile using_oss using_alsa using_arts using_jack using_backend
using_dbox2 using_dvb using_firewire using_frontend using_hdhomerun
using_iptv using_ivtv using_joystick_menu using_libfftw3 using_lirc
using_opengl_vsync using_opengl_video using_v4l using_x11 using_xrandr
using_xv using_xvmc using_xvmcw using_bindings_perl
using_bindings_python using_opengl using_ffmpeg_threads using_libavc_5_3
using_live

on Mythbuntu 7.

The CSS libs are installed - I can play other movies without problems.

Any suggestions or an alternative dvd player software with menu support?
I'm running with HD support, recent nvidia drivers for a 7600GT card
with component out.
