VideoLAN Client v0.4.4 freezes when playing DVDs

[Phillip Pi]

vlc --intf dummy dvd:/dev/dvd -vvvv and vlc dvd:/dev/dvd worked, but I
still have frozen player issue if I just use vlc command and use its GUI.  
Why? Another clue: When using the above command with debugging during
normal playback, turning subtitles freezes the player. The debug log said:

vpar info: stream periodicity changed from P[3] to P[4]
vpar info: stream periodicity changed from P[4] to P[3]
vpar info: stream periodicity changed from P[3] to P[2]
vpar info: stream periodicity changed from P[2] to P[4]
vpar info: stream periodicity changed from P[4] to P[1]
vpar info: stream periodicity changed from P[1] to P[3]
input: selecting ES 0x21bd
vpar info: stream periodicity changed from P[3] to P[2]

Thank you in advance. :)
