Thanks for this piece of info, Alexander. I didn't know about dvdnav
before. Unfortunately, recompiling mplayer with dvdnav support and
playing this disk with "mplayer dvdnav://1" made no visible difference.
The playback is still choppy. By choppy I mean that the image freezes
for about a second and then catches up. This happens every 5-10 seconds.

Any other ideas on what I can try to diagnose this problem?

Thanks.
