Public bug reported:
With a fresh Mythbuntu 14.04 installation AMD 64 bit combined
frontend/backend , there are two issues with the internal DVD player.
1. It fails with the message: “failed to open device /dev/dvd”.
In 12.04 there was a link /dev/dvd -> /dev/sr0 which was created at each reboot.
This link is missing in 14.04. Creating it with ‘sudo ln’ allows frontend to
play DVDs but the link is removed at next reboot.
A more lasting workaround is:
Frontend > setup > Media settings > Videos settings > Player settings > DVD
Drive changed from /dev/dvd to /dev/sr0
2. Ejecting media fails with error message: “no devices to eject - media
monitor”
It does this with either the /dev/dvd link in place or with the settings
changed as abov
