I asked a question about this last week and was sent to the support db, but that answer doesn't solve my problem.
I'm trying to script reads and writes to my dvd. Of course, this becomes difficult because it mounts dynamically, giving the name of the disk.
I've looked in the environment, through /etc, and so on, but can't find a place where the title of the dynamically mounted dvd is listed in a text file. If I can find the name somewhere on disk, I can read it into a script variable and work with it on the fly. Does anyone have a clue about this?

Hi Tim, i sent you some information about the hal / dbus system, but this seems to have not helped you anything.. But once again, did you try to enter the lshal command on your command line as I suggested? For each device you should see an entry then. if you entered a CD you would find in the section of your DVD - device the mount point used for this CD. volume.mount_point = '/media/idedisk' does this help?
