Maybe I haven't made my self clear enough. I don't have any problem
mounting the drives or playing that is all working fine. My question is
simple, if I have a disk in the both drives how do I tell mythtv which one
to play when I  press "Watch a disc" from the menu? By default it always
goes to the first one, which in this case is /dev/dvd. What if I want to
play from the second one /dev/dvd1? Hope my question is more clear now.

Cheers,
Igor
