Thank you for pointing to your posts on dvdnav-discuss. This is sort of
irritating that 40 days since dvdnav in MPlayer was broken, no one of
the leading developers seems to care. Of course, both reverting just
r1245 or building against the older system libdvdnav "solves" the issue,
but this state of affairs is far from ideal.

Should DVD playback in MPlayer become officially deprecated as far as it
is effectively unmaintained?
