I have the same problem, and I also have problems using the internal player for video files (.avi, mov, .mp4, etc). I'm running Ubuntu 7.10 on my backend, using the packages available from the Ubuntu Repositories, and Mythbuntu on my front end.

<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">I have myth 0.20.2 running on Gentoo and have a problem with
the internal DVD player. It will start to play the DVD and then terminate.
Sometimes I get a flash of the copyright screen and sometimes it just
terminates. I can play DVDs with xine, (both stand-alone and inside Myth) but
that is the only other player I have tried. What should I check to try and
find the problem? TIA. </span></font></p>
