2nd dvd burner I have tried no luck seeing dvd's


Hello been messing with linux for about 8 years now so i'm still a newbie .

I've run into a problem when i put dvd's in it don't see them when i put cd's in it pick them right up?
I have added my self to groups audio cdrom disks and a few others but no luck...
I even changed out my dvd burner thinking it was messed up and the new one does the same.

I'm thinking it something to do with the permission but i might be wrong or maybe something to do with permission for a dvd software dvdrw tools or something i don't know but i'm at a wits end.

When i put in a cd and goto yast>check media its all good but a dvd it say no media found...

Any and all help will be greatly appreciated thanks...

openSUSE 11.4 kde 4.x

Even though you're not using ubuntu it gives you an idea of packages necessary to play dvd
