Title:
  Crashes when pgci_ut handle is NULL

Status in libdvdnav package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  I'm trying to use VLC 1.0.2 on Ubuntu 9.10. This version of Ubuntu
  uses libdvdnav_4.1.3

  When playing most DVD iso files, this combination of VLC and
  libdvdread works well. However, some iso files causes VLC to crash at
  start-up with the error message shown at the bottom of this report.

  It seems that libdvdread aborts if pgci_ut is set to NULL. I've tried
  removing the assert() calls that are causing the abort and instead
  returned error values. When that happens, VLC spits out an infinite
  loop of

  libdvdnav: *** pgci_ut handle is NULL ***

  
  At the moment, I'm uncertain whether the issue is with libdvdread not handling the error properly, or if it is VLC that fails to catch the issue. I've found the latest version of mplayer can play the DVD iso files, so it's not just a case of a corrupted file.

  The original error output is included below and here is a link to a bug report I've filed against VLC for the same issue:
