Hi,
I believe the problem is with the spaces. I believe it is thinking that "file:///media/SL" is the first repository and then "5" is another, and so forth.

See if it helps if you change it from

  "file:///media/SL 5 Disc 1/"
to
  "file:///media/SL\ 5\ Disc\ 1/"

How did I get that?
Well, on the command line, if you partially type in a filename, or directory name, and then hit tab twice, it will fill in the name of the filename if it can.
So I typed
 "/media/SL"
and then hit tab twice and it filled it in with
  "file:///media/SL\ 5\ Disc\ 1/"

I hope this helps.
