Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: totem
Description: Ubuntu jaunty (development branch)
Release: 9.04
Regression In 9.04 (Jaunty): When using totem-xine, totem-gstreamer, etc
to open an iso, it mounts the iso to .gvfs, and then doesn't play it.
The files contained in the mounted folder are the AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS
folders, and none of the files contained in them play. Right clicking
an ISO and opening it with totem (Movie Player menu option) used to play
the ISO if it was a DVD in Intrepid Ibex / 8.10. This is quite
important for people who are using netbooks and cannot watch DVDs via an
internal drive.
In the case of ALIEN.iso (Or JURASSIC169.ISO or APOLLO69.ISO or any
other backup of a DVD)
Expected: Right click on ALIEN.iso, navigate to "Open With > Open with
"Movie Player", DVD playback begins.
Actual: Right click on ALIEN.iso, navigate to "Open With" > Open with
"Movie Player", DVD is mounted to .gvfs, appears on desktop. totem
doesn't play any files or add ALIEN.iso to playlist.
Reproducible: Always.
Other Notes: Physical DVDs are unaffected, and play normally (mounted on
/media/cdrom0, but playback from /dev/sr0)
totem:

Temporary workaround: Install totem-xine using your package manager.
Create a custom command launcher. Right click an ISO, click properties,
click the "Open With" tab, click Add, click the Use a custom command
arrow, and set the command to totem-xine dvd://
