Hey Neil,
I see that you are using trunk, I am too. I've got four hundred some DVDs
ripped, in .iso format, to hard drives (yes, I own the actual DVDs too). I
have noticed recent changes to the display or playback functions have caused
many of my DVDs to break. I update my installation to trunk every once in a
while and I noticed that a bunch of movies broke when I updated from svn rev
24785, in a very similar fashion to how you describe [dump to menu]. That
revision, 24785, was the last time I had very good results playing most all
my DVDs, there was only one I can think of that didn't work. Now, my wife
says one in four movies has a problem like this.
