Internal DVD player cannot skip (seek) properly why playing VOB files ripped from DVD

[Garrick James <mythtv@…>]

The internal DVD player has a problem when trying to play VOB files that have been ripped from DVDs. When attempting to skip forward or backward while playing a ripped VOB file through MythVideo?, the video will freeze and then one will hear strange audio for approximately the length of the skip that was requested (e.g. 5 seconds, 30 seconds, etc). After that, the video and audio start playing normally at the point where the skip was supposed to jump to. The "strange audio" sounds like when one seeks through a track on a CD player.

Skipping forward and backward work correctly when playing the original DVD using the internal player. The problem only manifests itself when trying to play a VOB file that was ripped from a DVD. Also note that the problem did not exist in myth 0.20.2.

I am using MythTV version 0.21-fixes r16838. I have also applied the following changesets from trunk: [16360] and [16836]. (Note that the problem still exists without 16360 and 16836, though; I've applied them for an unrelated problem).
