Hmmm, it didn't work for me.

$ ls -la /usr/lib/libmmbd.so.0
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 34336 Nov 18 13:59 /usr/lib/libmmbd.so.0

$ ls -la /usr/lib/libaacs.so.0  /usr/lib/libbdplus.so.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Nov 18 13:59 /usr/lib/libaacs.so.0 -> libmmbd.so.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Nov 18 13:59 /usr/lib/libbdplus.so.0 -> libmmbd.so.0


With a bluray inserted ("Cowboys Vs Aliens") Myth frontend log says:
Nov 18 14:15:16 mediabox mythfrontend.real: mythfrontend[2002]: E 
CoreContext DVD/dvdringbuffer.cpp:59 (DVDInfo) DVDInfo: Failed to open 
device at /dev/dvd

With the screen showing the Big-X Failed to Open /dev/dvd

It still plays DVDs ok though (phew!)

Any debugging suggestions ?

Looks like I'll have to stick to playing them back via converting them to 
MKVs first.

cheers,
