Most commercial DVDs that you purchase have warnings on the package
about "delays", glitches" and other "artifacts" which may occur at
layer change time.
I'm not sure of the details but I suspect it has as much to do with
the firmware in the drive itself as it does the software being used
to read from the drive.
Do the captions go away forever? Do they come back when you stop and
restart?
Does the problem occur with other playback software>
I suspect it is not a Myth problem, but rather a problem when using
Myth.
