Unfortunately, libdvdread is not under my control. It is supposed to
output its own error messages when it hits problems (in which case it
returns a null result to dvdunauthor which then exits), but it
appears this is sometimes not the case, so there is no indication what
the problem is.

My guess is the call to DVDOpenFile on line 1098 of dvdunauthor.c is
returning a null result.
