For those having DVD playback problems, a helpful reminder from me to you:
check your audio codec under the DVD tab in the config utility.
I spent hours debugging the video codec only to discover it was the audio codec causing my problem.
The symptom was that the DVD would play the textual disclaimer that
the director's commentary does not reflect that of the distributors, etc, etc.
(Note - there was no sound at this point.)
Then it played about 1.5 seconds of the animated main menu (with sound)
before hanging the DVD playback and all of the PVRX2 process. (I would
have to kill the PVRX2 process and restart it manually.)
Once I changed the audio codec on the DVD tab to match
that on the PLAYBACK tab, everything worked great.
