Hi Tom,

It will, but it's no different than any other patch, and shouldn't be 
too big, either.

I've no idea what the problem was in libdvdread that would prevent 
bookmarks working with VIDEO_TS directories but allow them to work with 
ISO images but since I changed the way the bookmark code works to make 
it more reliable, even if the bug still exists, it may not affect us any 
more, anyway.

Richard.
