    I have an American DVD of "A Bridge Too Far" which won't decode, not
    because it cannot be read, but because it goes into a cataleptic loop
    when trying to (to quote mplayer) "Attempting to get all the keys,
    this could take a long time".

    A friend of mine sent me a data DVD+R which just won't be read, and
    this is supposed to be a DVD+-R/RW. Sony makes really pretty
    hardware, but it is a pain in the *** in "unique" ways too. K3B
    chokes when I try to write a DVD also.
