Hi Lu.

Ok, let's try this the other way round: consider me a noob in the sense of 
DVDs like DVD structures, encoding, cypher, muxing, anything related. I got 
these DVDs I want to back up. Most can be read fine by the tools as they are, 
others act up in the way described. Since I'm the one who has the DVD and I'm 
the one who wants to back them up, I'm probably the one who should consider 
fixing/updating the tools to handle them?

Now assume that I know my way around code. Where should I start looking? How 
can I reduce the problem to a minimal piece of software and library 
dependencies that still work and show the problem in a reasonable amount of 
time? Are there any bare test tools that I can use as a starting point?

I realise that this is possibly outside the realm of libav, but, for example, 
digging myself through not less than 130 libraries to extract the bits and 
pieces needed from mplayer is not my cup of tea right now ...

$ ldd `which mplayer` | wc -l
    130

Thanks

        Daniel
