I have a working Samsung CD/DVD player with (SATA connection) and i'm running latest updated version of 12.04. Audio CDs and video DVDs appear in the devices sidebar, but I have a DVD from a professional photographer with pictures of my daughter and friends which will just not open.
When I try to mount in terminal I get the following message:
mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: you must specify the file system type
I am assuming it's JPEG.
What should I do next?
I have looked through previous questions in this area but none seems to address this particular problem. Thanks for any help.
