Bug Description
I have an issue playing home made ISO files with Totem in Ubuntu 8.04. ISO files that are DVD copies ripped with k9Copy play just fine as do most (but not all) other DVD ISO copies I have downloaded. DV file from camcorder converted to mpeg with ffmpeg, then authored with dvdauthor and mkisofs does not play in Totem, but plays just fine in both VLC and Mplayer (all software from Ubuntu repos, none are built manually).
Here are the commands I use to make the ISO from a DV file:
ffmpeg -i file.dv -threads 2 -mbd rd -flags +trell -cmp 2 -subcmp 2 -g 100 -pass 1/2 -target pal-dvd /tmp/file.mpg
dvdauthor -o /tmp/DVD/ -t --video=
dvdauthor -o /tmp/DVD/ -T
mkisofs -dvd-video -o file.iso /tmp/DVD/
and here is the output I get when trying to play the file in totem as root (I do "sudo bash" first to get root shell, as playing it as the file owner simply says I do not have permissions):
root@everest:
** (totem:3387): WARNING **: Failed to create dbus proxy for org.gnome.
** Message: Error: Could not open resource for reading.
vcdsrc.c(421): gst_vcdsrc_start (): /play/source:
system error: Inappropriate ioctl for device
