Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: totem

Ubuntu karmic, fully upgraded.

I have a set of commercial DVDs (Ghost in the Shell, polish edition)
(all of them are reported as unscrambled, or not encrypted, by
libdvdcss2, which I do have installed).

When I try to watch them in totem (either by choosing totem in the
dialog window which shows up just after the cd is inserted, or by
calling `totem dvd://`), totem starts up but does not show anything. The
application does not hang or crash -- simply nothing is played, the
video is blank, I cannot press play button and the video properties are
blank.

The same set of DVDs do work (as in: can be played) when I launch totem
by `totem dvd://2` (or any other valid title number)... as long as the
title chosen is not 1 or the title with menu (this varies in different
DVDs). So: `totem dvd://1` does not work, `totem dvd://2` works, ...
`totem dvd://10` works, `totem dvd://11` does not work (and it contains
the main menu). For numbers which work the video properties pane shows
all the data correctly.

Xine from `xine-ui` package plays them correctly and shows the animated
menu... but I cannot manipulate it (its DVD menu controls does not
work).

mplayer does play all the DVDs too, again I could not manipulate the
menu there (even with `-dvdnav` option).

I would provide a backtrace, but none of the programs crash... so I
think it wouldn't do much. I'm filling this to totem because it doesn't
even show the menu. The funny thing is, that totem used to work
correctly before an upgrade somewhere during last Christmas; if someone
points me to an archive with older karmic packages, I'd test them.
