My guess is that you have a permissions problem with your DVD device (/dev/hdc). Check the permissions there. Mine looks like this: brw-rw----  1 root disk 22, 0 Mar 10 12:47 hdc

If that is your case  just `gpasswd -a <yourusername> disk` and you should be good to go. Don't bother trying to change the permissions on hdc since they will be reverted back when you next reboot.

How about "ls -l /dev/hdc" ?
