[MPlayer-users] DVD: menu distorted and unresponsive

  Hi there,

The DVD menu from the TV series "The Shield" (Season 2) is not working 
correctly. AFAIK the DVD menu feature is experimental, but maybe this 
bug report can help?
when the menu is loaded it is fine for about 1 second but then the image 
gets distorted heavily in about 1-2 seconds.
There are 2 screenshot, the first showing the menu as usual, the second 
one shows the "final stage". often afterwards the menu items are not 
working anymore:

The output on the command line says "Your system is too SLOW to play 
this!" when the menu is loaded - but i don't think so, i have a Intel 
3,2 GHz Core 2 Quad.
Aside from this, the DVD plays fine.

In VLC and Totem the menu is working as expected.

Thank you!

            **** Your system is too SLOW to play this!  ****
            ************************************************

Possible reasons, problems, workarounds:
- Most common: broken/buggy _audio_ driver
   - Try -ao sdl or use the OSS emulation of ALSA.
   - Experiment with different values for -autosync, 30 is a good start.
- Slow video output
   - Try a different -vo driver (-vo help for a list) or try -framedrop!
- Slow CPU
   - Don't try to play a big DVD/DivX on a slow CPU! Try some of the 
lavdopts,
     e.g. -vfm ffmpeg -lavdopts lowres=1:fast:skiploopfilter=all.
- Broken file
   - Try various combinations of -nobps -ni -forceidx -mc 0.
- Slow media (NFS/SMB mounts, DVD, VCD etc)
   - Try -cache 8192.
- Are you using -cache to play a non-interleaved AVI file?
   - Try -nocache.
