Question Problem with DVDs


Hi,
When I try to use some of my DVDs in my FC6, they just don't auto-mount and also the icon of the dvd-rw disappears in the Nautilus.
So, this is weird, isn' it??
I've tried many DVDs, the problem just happen with some of them. With the Video DVDs it doesn't happen, but about data DVDs, with some it does.
I think that it might be because they were recorded with Nero Burning Rom in a multi-session way (under WinXP) and I don't have that my Linux isn't able to read them. But I think some of the other DVDs that worked are also recoded in this way, although I'm not sure...
I hope this is kinda a normal bug or something, and that there's a way to fix it up.
Thank you

You probably lack the dvd_css libraries.

Install the livna repository. Then install libdvdcss via yum.

Code:
su -
rpm -ivh http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-6.rpm
yum install libdvdcss -y
Those dvds should now be accessible and playable.

I already had this version installed: libdvdcss-1.2.9-4.lvn6. So the problem isn't solved :-S

I THINK that it has to do with the multisession not closing the disk properly. So this would really be a multisession bug (I know that does not solve the problem). On the disks that do not automount have you tried a manual mount?

Good Luck
