[Wine] dvdflick no longer works in wine

[jc24]

Trying to run the latest version of dvdflick (http://www.dvdflick.net) results in the program freezing and having to be forcibly terminated. 

The only difference I can make out between the new version and the older betas is the GUI. At some point the GUI changed and is now using  'xp styles'. The last beta that I could get hold of which worked was 1.3.0 build 616 and that had the older interface as well.

Does anyone have any experience with dvdflick under wine or have any ideas on how to troubleshoot/fix this problem.

thanks
