mplayer bluray playback got broken

[Merelin]

One of recent mplayer updates broke bluray playback. At the moment mplayer is unable to play bluray disc directory structure from a hard drive:

mantonyan@merelin:~$ ll /media/disk1/PERFUME_BD/

This used to work for me.

What was the last version that worked for you? Does downgrading fix it?

2:1.0~rc4.dfsg1-1ubuntu3 seems to be the latest working version.
Downgrading fails on dependencies:

mantonyan@merelin:~$ sudo dpkg -i /home/mantonyan/Dropbox/mplayer_1.0~rc4.dfsg1-1ubuntu3_amd64.deb

I suppose that the issue appeared after the following update:

mplayer 2:1.0~rc4.dfsg1-1ubuntu3 -> 2:1.0~rc4.dfsg1+svn33713-1
libbluray0 -> libbluray-bdj and libbluray1

@siretart: mplayer is probably just missing the updated api check/usage.

Downgrading seems to have solved the problem:

I've installed the following packages:

mplayer_1.0~rc4.dfsg1-1ubuntu3_amd64.deb
libbluray0_0.2~git20110213.20739ed-0ubuntu3_amd64.deb
liblzo2-2_2.05-1_amd64.deb
libpostproc-extra-51_0.6.2-1ubuntu2_amd64.deb

Seems you're right. Rico, can you please get the patch into our git repositories?

Any chance to get this fixed?
