Niels, do you ever create Chapter menus? I've been trying to get the chapter
menus working without luck. I've tried the Gentoo equivalent of the package 
versions you list above, but xine always crashes when I click on a recording 
to view the chapter menu. I have plenty of DVDs from when I was running 0.18.1
and the chapter menus on those work fine.

I've learned a lot about different version combinations. For example, imagemagick 
6.2.2.3 creates blank menu images, but 6.2.6 works fine. Also, on Gentoo, the 
jpeg-mmx ebuild MUST be patched, otherwise mjpegtools will segfault. Etc... but 
I have yet to figure out what's causing this chapter menu crash.

Pulling my hair out here and burning a ton of coasters. Does anyone have DVD 
chapter menus working with mythburn and 0.19?

Thanks!
