Most DVD's play well for me in xbmc, however some of them seem to have alot of trouble in the dvd-menu.
As you can see in the logfiles, I took the following DVD:
libdvdnav: DVD Title: SHERLOCK_HOLMES
libdvdnav: DVD Serial Number: 3C636976
What happens: All trailers play well, the trouble starts when entering the dvd-menu. If I click on an item, it takes ages until the item is selected.
If I start the movie (click on play in the menu), I have to wait ca. 5min until the movie starts. ( I found that out on accident, because I left xbmc alone ) I think it is related to the screensaver, which is about to start .. I saw some frames from the screensaver, before the movie started.
The movie quality and sound is nice, no problem with that.
So I took a try to play the dvd directly in linux, not via XBMC. I used VLC to do so.
Even via VLC, I cannot just straight-forward click on the files of the dvd … this will result in some error-message. However I can type the following to make things work:
This will give me a working, fast dvd-menu .. and the movie starts and plays without any delay … so it seems to be a xbmc-related problem.
