Dvd Player (hdc) improperly mounted

At one point I was able to play dvds in Totem-xine but now I get the error
"Failed to play Audio/Video Disc
Failed to find mount point for device /dev/hdc in /etc/fstab"

I can play dvds in gxine and xfmedia, but I prefer Totem. My fstab file looks like so:
# This file is edited by fstab-sync - see 'man fstab-sync' for details
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 / ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol05 /home ext3 defaults 1 2
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol04 /tmp ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol03 /usr ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol02 /var ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap swap defaults 0 0
none /var/lib/jack/tmp tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/hdd /media/cdrecorder auto

/dev/hdc /media/cdrom auto
pamconsole,ro,exec,noauto,managed 0 0
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,$


I can see and select my samsung drive in the preferences menu, so I don't know what gives.

During bootup I get the following:
mount: mount: No medium found
mount: mount: mount point 0 does not exist
It repeats the message again.

I guess this is a part of the same problem, sorry for posting in a seperate thread, I thought they were different issues considering Totem plays dvds fine now.

When trying to play cds from /dev/cdrom (hdc) I hear a brief pop but no further sound. It refuses to play at all. It's not a problem with my audio cable hooked to my drive or with the mixer. I can sucessfully play cds from the Apolos cd player, BMP, and XMMS (yes with analog mode). Alsaplayer and Zinf crash. My udev is updated, I can play dvds fine. If I put the cd in my cdrecorder /dev/cdrom1 (hdd) it seems to be running, but since there is no cable hooked to my soundcard I hear no sound. I could hook it to hdc, but will I hear sounds when playing dvds with hdc? My dvd player is a Samsung DVD-ROM SD-816B bytheway.

I run gnome-cd from the terminal and I get this error (note the number increases each time I run gnome-cd):
** (gnome-cd:11932): WARNING **: Generic IO error

Gnome-cd never seems to be able to shutdown cleanly, I get the Force Quit dialog for a second and then both windows quit unless I run in /dev/cdrom1.

I can't play cds as root either.
This problem was fixed by switching audio cables to the cdrw drive and playing cds with that. My fstab is :
# This file is edited by fstab-sync - see 'man fstab-sync' for details
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 / ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol05 /home ext3 defaults 1 2
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol04 /tmp ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol03 /usr ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol02 /var ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap swap defaults 0 0
none /var/lib/jack/tmp tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/hdd /media/cdrecorder auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0
/dev/hdc /media/cdrom auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0

Playing DVDs works fine and I can hear audio (now I know that dvd drives don't rely on the analog audio cable for basic sound). So that's a bandaid solution to the gnome-cd problem. Considering I can play cds on the other drive with other software, it is purely a limitation of gnome-media with dvd drives. I wish I didn't spend all night looking for a solution.
