[Bug 852345] [NEW] Libdvdread misses hidden files and causes segfaults to calling programs

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Ubuntu QA's Bug Bot (crichton):

Package: libdvdread4
Version: 4.1.x and others

No error message, but symptoms are usually segfault when reading, for example the Movie DVD Thor.
This results from a new anti-copy scheme where the real video_ts.ifo is hidden. Use of the decoy video_ts.ifo results in a unplayable DVD.
