Hi All/Memphiz
I originally posted an issue with DVD playback that Memphiz was looking into and resolved using XBMC_libcdio090.dmg with latest libcdio -

I have just upgraded to Beta1 and noticed that DVD playback has gone back to the original issue (select "Play DVD" from menu and nothing happens - just goes back to menu). I then reverted back to old Alpha7 nightly again with latest libcdio and DVD's playback fine again.
My setup is the same as previous post with the exception of upgrading to Beta1:
OS: OSX .8.2
Old XBMC nightly: 12.0-ALPHA7 Git:20121021-e7ed813
DVD testing: Toy Story
Debug log: Alpha 7 Install (DVD playback working):

Debug log: Beta1 (DVD playback not working):

Any more info required to look into this?
Thanks
Thats not the issue i've fixed ... its a different one. Damn.
Well my testdvd still works on b1 *grr*
Balls. It was definitely one part of my old thread and the libcdio update does work if i revert back.
So, due to my audio configuration, I switched from Eden to using Frodo nightly builds. Currently, I'm using the Beta 1 build. Most things were working while I was still running 10.7.5 (Lion), but I decided to finally upgrade my mid-2010 Mac mini to 10.8.2 (Mountain Lion). Now, VIDEO_TS folders, .ISO files, and even a real DVD all result in my inability to watch any DVD content with XBMC. VLC shares the same issue with a real DVD only (can't play it), but Apple's DVD Player plays a real DVD just fine. I assume that some shared library between XBMC and VLC is where things fall apart.
This log is me firing up XBMC and merely telling it to Play Disc. I exited after the DVD failed to play properly. All of my testing is being done with the same DVD, too.

Interesting. It seems that DVD playback was broken because of an AudioEngine change. I found that every movie with DD audio was playing extremely poor, with no audio at all, while the DD/DTS passthrough options were enabled. I had to disable passthrough to
In this log, I played a non-DD movie fine, attempted to play a DVD with DD/DTS passthrough options on, then turned off all passthrough options and was able to play the movie.
This is on OSX 10.8.2, with XBMC 12.0-BETA1 Git:20121126-d8c852e (Compiled: Nov 26 2012). This was a downloaded nightly binary, not my own compile. My Audio MIDI Setup is set for 2ch-24bit Integer, but the log seems to report it differently.

If you don't have an ac3/dd capable receiver connected turning on the passhtrough options makes no sense and leads to the symptoms you described.
Beside that this has nothing to do with the OPs problem report. He is not even able to play a DVD if i got it right.
@
diverseft could you try with the latest nightly? And are you able to compile xbmc?
Hi Memphiz
I will try latest nightly beta tonight and report back. I haven't compiled yet but am sure I could manage if you can point me towards a decent OS X guide.
Well sry for wasting your time and thx for trying. I guess i try to come up with a test build for you as soon as i have some sparetime. (its just a bit painfull to compile xbmc on osx when it is the first thing to compile ever and without some experience
)
No. I appreciate you looking into the issue and am willing to help out where ever I can.
Please try this version and report back:
