Update libdvdnav to current version 4.2.1
#1
Hi!
I'm not perfectly sure if this is the right thread - but I think it would be a good idea to update the used libdvdnav to the current version.

As far as I can see XBMC is currently using 4.1.3 dated 2008! and as the most recent version 4.2.1 is from december 2013 it would make sense to get the update (and the news on http://dvdnav.mplayerhq.hu/ say that it's mostly bugfixes - so I think an update shouldn't break anything but just make dvd playback more reliable Smile

Thanks in advance!

(and I have the hope that some of the bugfixes make playback on RPi a little bit more reliable Smile

Your on a old XBMC. Current is 4.2.0

https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master.../ChangeLog

https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/tree/master/lib/libdvd

In any case such updates wont be done anytime soon, maybe after Gotham is tagged/branched and also unless you submit a PR with patches and fixes etc.

And updating always breaks stuff, shouldn't is a uninformed comment, since it has to be modified to work with XBMC, it actually did break when it was upgraded to 4.2.0
