I'm attaching a patch for doing exactly that. However, due to my
limited (or lack of...) knowledge of how dvdnav works i can only do
some ugly hacking there. Since the time seeking function was
unimplemented, i wrote one based on the sector version. it uses some
tables and interpolation and it seems works (very little testing) but
it may not be the correct way. besides it doesn't seem to be very
accurate (interpolation error?).

so... would you mind checking the dvdnav part of the patch for me? ;-)
