[xine-devel] Anyone want to get this DVD to work in Xine?

[<arr...@az...>]

I actually first wrote about this in 2003, had people offer to help me, and
put it aside and forgot about it, but anyway, I just got back to this after
buying some more DVDs from Hirameki and wanting to play them.

The DVD is Phantom of Inferno (the interactive DVD version from Hirameki--
not Phantom: The Animation) and has subtitles, some moving video, and some
still scenes.  It has passwords implemented with DVD menus.  DVDs such as
this use a lot of weird DVD features and are notoriously hard to play on DVD
players that aren't exactly correct.

Enter the first password, AAZGIUJE.

The first subtitle "If this is a dream..." is missing (it's present on a
regular DVD player), and the scenes don't stay around for the correct length
of time.  For instance, by the time the "Ouch" line appears, Xine has already
showed the second scene, where on a regular DVD player it is still on the
first.  The scenes rapidly get more and more out of sync, and it's possible
some may be missing.

There are also a couple of places in a new game where subtitles are missing,
even before the first password.

I am using Xine-lib 1.1.2 (and GUI 0.99.4).

Is there anyone willing to get this to work?  (If necessary, I can send a
copy of the files, though it's 7.7G and won't fit on a single layer DVD-R.)
