Not a direct answer on your question with base mount_udf.

Do you know https://github.com/williamdevries/UDF/ from William DeVries?
His project comes from NetBSD and modernises the UDF standard towards
2.5x. With this driver, you would be able to read modern not encrypted
Blu-rays and DVDs. The driver works in principle, some minor issues have
to be solved.

Unfortunately there is only very little interest to integrate this
driver into base.

Rainer
