VLC 1.1.4 doesn't play dvd menus [Solved]

[Antid Oto]

The new version of VLC doesn't play DVD menus. Perhaps it has been compiled to disable this option? In the previous version (1.0.5), the option to work properly. Thanks for any way to fix this problem. Regards.

Yes, you're right. Apparently it doesn't.

Only issue I can see in the build.log is: checking for dvdnav_get_video_resolution in -ldvdnav... no

But everything else seems to be ok:

Hi thenktor. It's weird. I have also the same files (in a 32bit installation of Salix), however, your package doesn't support dvdnav. Vlcrc file states that it's working with dvdread instead dvdnav (And I don't chose that option in VLC):

Code: Select all

[dvdread] # DVDRead Input (no menu support)

# DVD angle (integer)
#dvdread-angle=1

# Caching value in ms (integer)
#dvdread-caching=300

Can you try to upload a fixed package? Thank you.

PD: I tried SMPlayer, and works well, but I like VLC

I guess this is an upstream bug.

[Antid Oto]

OK. But I like to try. I'd like to have your previous package of VLC (1.0.5), which worked pretty well for me. Is there any way to recover it? or at least get the SlackBuild you used for 1.1.4. Thanks.

EDIT: Don't worry. I found a package that works fine from Alien's BOB repository (VLC 1.1.3). I'll use it while the problem is fixed in the salix package. Thank you very much. Regards.

I'm building a 1.1.3 package right now (x86_64) to check if this version works. Will be online for testing in about an hour (cannot test it myself because I'm at work when the build finishes... )

EDIT: Package is here: http://thenktor.dyndns.org/download/

[thenktor]

Updated package in the repo. Hope this one works. I've removed libdvdread support.

[Antid Oto]

Yeah! Your new package works fine. Thanks a lot. Greetings.

Thanks for the bug report
