Can't help you with the TV, but I bet the fix in the release notes to
use the old drivers ide code will get you that CD drive back.

There seem to be a number of problems with the new libata drivers and
optical disks.  Sounds like you hit one of them.  Tejun Heo of Novell
is trying to get a big collection of "ATAPI" related fixes into the
vanilla kernel, and I assume they will eventually come out for 10.3's
kernel.
