Bug#466309: totem: Won't play DVD

Sun Feb 17 20:20:56 UTC 2008

Package: totem
Version: 2.20.3-1
Severity: important

    Totem seems to have serious problems playing DVDs.  With the default
gnome preference set to totem %m it won't play DVDs at all.  From the command
line if I issue 'totem dvd://' I have success playing one DVD but the other
fails with following error(s):

*** Zero check failed in ifo_read.c:1539
    for c_adt->zero_1 = 0x0011

    *** libdvdread: CHECK_VALUE failed in ifo_read.c:1678 ***
    *** for info_length % sizeof(uint32_t) == 0 ***

    *** libdvdread: CHECK_VALUE failed in ifo_read.c:1543 ***
    *** for info_length % sizeof(cell_adr_t) == 0 ***

    libdvdread: Invalid title IFO (VTS_01_0.IFO).
    ** Message: Error: Could not read from resource.
    dvdreadsrc.c(908): gst_dvd_read_src_create (): /play/source

Note that mplayer issues a similar error message about the .ifo file but plays both DVDs without any tinkering
or stoppage.
