You may want to use gnome-mount -d /dev/dvdrw instead. It will create a directory off of /media, and mount the DVD there. The name will be based on the label of the DVD. I am not sure why your DVD's are not mounted - it might be because they are UDF. I have ISO9660 data DVD's, and they mount fine, but I do not have any UDF format disks to try.
