I did, no solution there for me.

BTW. the way to extract subtitles using mplayer (as described in man 
page) doesnt work. It just doesnt do anything. I tried all kind of 
things like this:

mplayer -dvd 1 -dvd-device /dvd -v -sid 4 -dumpsub -ifo blablabla.ifo 
-dumpfile test

etc. etc. (with different combinations)

did anyone succeeded in this?

thanks
