Hi!

Thanks for the detailed report.

I sudo to root and mount it.

Data dvds: See above.

Video:

I use one of those commands:

mplayer -mouse-movements dvdnav://
mplayer -dvd-device /dev/cd0 dvd://1
mplayer -dvd-device /dev/cd0 -alang en dvd://1
mplayer -identify dvd://

and a few other combinations. Works, I only vaguely remember one case where
no variant did work at all.
