Topic: DVD+RW discs not recognized by Thunar

DVD movies are detected, as are CD-R's. However, I have been unable to have #! recognize my DVD+RW discs. I have tested these discs on a Windows  7, and they are recognized without issue. I have a Toshiba Satellite M35-S456 which has a DVD+RW burner. It could just be that my drive doesnt like TDK dics, however I'm wondering what else I could do to mount these discs? Thanks.

Did you ever find a fix for this? I am having the exact same issue!

Could you try to open it with VLC, try with: Open medium->select DVD.
