But I cannot tell if the problem was introduced by your patch or that it

When I insert a cd with avi-files it all works perfectly... I can browse
and play them, Pretty nice!

I applied the patch and did some testing on it. It starts out OK. I have

Yes, same problem.. Eject works fine though! I think the problem is somewhere
in the media handler.... It grabs the cd again immediatly after you have
unmounted it. There are other weird things in the media handler. When you insert
a data cd (and not install your handler), it will mount it. If you want to take
it out, you have to eject it. Unmounting won't help you, since it is mounted
again before you have the chance to get to push the button on the cd-drive :-/
