+1 on 7.2-STABLE machine, using cam layer. multimedia/handbrake is the 
offending app, that then keeps going into a loop requesting "title one of 8". 
If suspended, the app is not killable and reboot does not shut down the 
machine. Hard power off is needed.
Preceding the spam is:
kernel: (cd0:ata1:0:0:0): Media region code is mismatched to logical
 unit region

I've been assured there's no media region code mismatch (US DVD with US DVD-
ROM). Just reproduced with mplayer:

The above system is a desktop with:

If needed, I can upgrade this system to stable/8, rather not upgrade it to 
head.
