I have NEC ND-2500 DVD-/+R. I had regular DVD drive before and I removed 
it and replaced it with this new drive. Unfortunately I can't even watch 
any DVDs with it or reord any DVDRs.
/mnt/cdrom is there and does show audio/video folders, but MPlayer can't 
access /dev/dvd

I have Fedora done following that popular how-to.
Here is the log output out of MythTV:
