dvdnav_sector_search failed to seek to the right sector. changed it to make the da vinci dvd work. seems to work with other dvds too.

time based seeking through a dvd. still a little jerky if u use sticky rew/ffw. trying to see if i can prevent that.

2nd attempt. still undergoing testing. should also fix where if hit the skip button repeatedly it jumps back to the beginning of the title.

time based seeking seems to work okay for skip ffw and skip back.. this attempt tries to resolve the extreme delay when you use sticky rew/ffw. still undergoing testing. last attempt didn't resolve the slow sticky rew/ffw experience.

hopefully this should work well now. figured out a way using the DSI information efficient precise dvd seeking . in dvd nav changed the vobu search through the admap to use binary search algorithm. even at 2x on a dvd drive can now get smooth dvd seeking.

(In [12275]) Closes #2808. internal dvd player: fix for seeking through da vinci code. tested it on a few other dvds. seems to work fine.

changeset [12275] caused rewind failures on a cartoon dvd i got today. reopening this ticket. have to implement time based seeking. this should hopefully provide a more precise ffw/rew experience for all dvds. currently mplayer and xine do it in two different ways. going to review their methods and implement time based seeking in the near future. for now, some folks may have serious seeking issues with some dvds..at least [12275] seems to prevent mythtv lockup when seeking fails on some dvds.

(In [12348]) Refs #2808. use time based seeking by using dvdnav_time_search. repeatedly hitting skip back/forward when watching a dvd from the dvd drive may cause excessive prebuffer pauses. also noticed that setting the dvd drive to 2x causes seeking to be really slow. so in #2821 i'll try and change the speed during seeking to not make it so slow.

(In [12356]) Refs #2808. precise time based dvd seeking not efficient enough. disabling it for now. Also Closes #2847. patch provided by otto.

(In [12401]) Refs #2808. internal dvd player. hopefully better dvd seeking. tried to implement, in an efficient manner, precise dvd seeking if you use skip ffw/rew. makes heavy use of the DSI info in the dvd nav packet. folks who use sticky rew/ffw should not see much difference. thx to otto for testing. see #2808 for more details.
