patch

libdvdread can open a device node like /dev/cd0, but it can also open a mount
point like /media/SOME_DVD_LABEL.  It will lookup the device node for that
mount point then.  This appears to be used by GNOME.  Currently libdvdread uses
getfsfile(3) for this which means the device node has to be in /etc/fstab. 
This is normally not the case for removable media.  This patch changes
libdvdread to use statfs(2) instead.
