Onkar, I have used your PPA as per:

nullack@PPP:~$ sudo apt-cache policy gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad:
  Installed: 0.10.8-1ubuntu1~ppa2
  Candidate: 0.10.8-1ubuntu1~ppa2

With re-testing the previously reported issues:

1. This major issue breaks about half of my DVD collection and still exists in this SVN build of resindvd. Please note, it does not exist with Hardy as resindvd was not used.

2. Seeking is still broken.

3. Trying to go back to menu during title playback is still broken.

4. Subtitle functionality is still broken.

5. Audio functionality is still broken.

6. Multi angle DVDs are still broken.

Onkar, Im thankful for the work youve done with this and Im sure that when upstream is in a better state you will be able to help deliver a great DVD experience on Ubuntu with gstreamer. The problem is the changes with totem using resindvd for a production release version thats very shortly to be released is that the whole experience with gstreamer for DVD playback is much more worse than what it was under Hardy.

I dont see how any responsible decision can be made to go with resindvd playback for Intrepid. To me the only realistic path is to regress back to a Hardy like configuration that did not use resindvd.
