But apparently in your case (and to my surprise, mine too!) the disk is not recognised. If a DVD is recognised it should display messages as mentioned in this post[1]. I can positively say I have successfully watched a DVD right before Christmas (24th of December to be exact). So something changed between then and now. A possible candidate could be the new kernel as I don't see any of the usual suspects among the updates during this period (24th of December to now). My understanding of a system is rather limited, so I don't how to debug this issue any further.
