I've got it working... somewhat now. The fix was to mount the disc at play the file through the path ('xine /cdrom/bla/bla.vob' instead of 'xine dvd://bla.vob').

Now, why can't xine handle direct access to to the dvd-drive?

The operating system can (and does) readahead and be smart about things.

Single threaded applications (I'm guessing here) can't easily.

The obvious solution is to let the operating system do its operating system things, rather than trying to duplicate them in programs like xine...
