Bug Description
UPDATED DESCRIPTION:
#######
I have two optical drives, a CD/RW drive and a DVD drive.
In /etc/udev/
So changing /etc/udev/
It think this has nothing to do with Kaffeine so I'll try to change the description etc in this bug report respectively...
ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION:
#######
Kubuntu 9.10 with medibuntu, partners & backports activated, upgraded. I installed Kaffeine (as Dragonplayer's a bit limited..) to play DVD:s, but it won't work:
start kaffeine
press 'play DVD'.
stdout gives me:
gs@utberg:/dev$ kaffeine
gs@utberg:/dev$ libdvdnav: Using dvdnav version 1.1.16.3 from http://
libdvdread: Encrypted DVD support unavailable.
libdvdread: Can't stat /dev/dvd
No such file or directory
libdvdnav: vm: faild to open/read the DVD
libdvdnav: Using dvdnav version 1.1.16.3 from http://
libdvdread: Encrypted DVD support unavailable.
libdvdread: Can't stat /dev/dvd
No such file or directory
libdvdnav: vm: faild to open/read the DVD
and I get a popup telling me "Cannot find input plugin for MRL [dvd:/]"
/dev/dvd doesn't exist. I can create it manually but it won't help much as I don't know how to make DVD appear there.. Also Kaffeine doesn't have the settings menu item there -> I don't know how to tell Xine to look for /dev/scd0..

sudo ln -s /dev/sr0 /dev/dvd seems to help.. No idea why this is needed. Either kaffeine should point to /dev/sr0 - or /dev/dvd should exist..
