libdvdnav triggers many asserts and crashes on various DVDs clearly  
some of the things that are NEVER supposed to happen, are clearly  
common on certain commercial DVDs. Anyways, development of libdvdnav  
is only just being picked up again atm lets hope that it will improve  
further in the coming year.
