[mythtv-users] DVD Playback Errors - Region 2

I am having trouble with DVD playback.  I am running
Knoppmyth R5A22 and have the latest version of
libdvdread 3/css installed.  I have tried            
using regionset - set to region 2 but without success.
 I have a Panasonic UJ845 CDRW/DVDRW slimline device.

I find that most DVD's, particularly newer ones,   get
as far as the splash screen and then crash before the
Main Menu.  Some DVD's work fine though.

If i run Xine in an Xterm I get something along the
lines of:

libdvdread:  Error cracking CSS key for
VIDEO_TS/VTS02_0.VOB

libdvdread: CHECK_VALUE failed in ifo_read.c:1636***
for pgcit: [gci-srp[i].pgcstart_byte+PGC_SIZE<=
pgcit->last_byte+1

Any help?
