[MPlayer-users] option -ss seek position not seeking past 8 minutes

[Jerry Geis]

I am playing a DVD movie. I am wanting to seek into the movie with -ss 
00:10:00
and mplayer exits. Why can I not seek 10 minuites into the movie?
my full command is "mplayer -ss 00:10:00 dvd://1"

if I seek one minute that works -ss 00:01:00

Thanks for the help.

Jerry
