mplayer: *** libdvdread: CHECK_VALUE failed in ... ***

[Michael Hennebry]

I've given up on gmplayer.
At least I can make mplayer go.
That said, when playing a DVD-R, I get lots of the following error:
A:   9.1 V:  29.0 A-V:-19.856 ct:  1.310 3395/3395 38% 10%  3.7% 287 0
*** libdvdread: CHECK_VALUE failed in 
/builddir/build/BUILD/libdvdread-4.1.3/src/nav_read.c:263 ***
*** for dsi->dsi_gi.zero1 == 0 ***

If I use } to fast search, I get lots of the following:
Too many video packets in the buffer: (4096 in 8260344 bytes).
Maybe you are playing a non-interleaved stream/file or the codec failed?
For AVI files, try to force non-interleaved mode with the -ni option.

a52: CRC check failed!

Each set of messages persists when
I copy the DVD-R to a hard drive.

What should I do about them?
Even if they are harmless now,
they are likely to mask any less numerous error messages.
