  3. Always attempt to move forward on a seek

  5. From John Stebbins original post (with pathc, Thanks!):
  6. libdvdnav has a problem in that it is difficult to gracefully recover
  7. from a read error and continue on to subsequent blocks on the disc.  An
  8. application would like to seek forward past the current block after
  9. getting a read error in order to attempt to get past the bad block(s).
  10. But dvdnav_sector_search() does not guarantee that a requested forward
  11. seek will actually move the current position forward.  It truncates down
  12. to the nearest VOBU which will almost always cause a forward seek
  13. request by a single block (or a small number of blocks) to move the
  14. current position backward.  This behaviour puts the application into a
  15. loop of: read failure, attempted forward seek (which results in backward
  16. seek), read failure ...
