DVD Autoplay not working correctly

I have DVD autoplay enabled. When I insert a DVD, instead of playing, it brings up a file menu:

DVD Title

Browse videos
Browse music
Browse pictures
Browse files

When I select the first video file, the DVD will play just fine.

The section of log that appears when I insert the disc is

I assume this isn’t what’s meant by DVD autoplay.

I’m running OSMC Kodi-RC1 Git:Unknown (Compiled Aug 7 2015) on a Raspberry Pi Model B+.

Here’s the full log: http://paste.osmc.io/zivacukuti

I think you’ll find the issue is that your “DVD” does not have a UDF file system, only an iso9660 file system:

Data CD’s normally have only an iso9660 file system while DVD’s have a UDF file system, sometimes with an optional iso9660 file system.

Although I would have to double check, I think you’ll find that Kodi will only auto-play a DVD with a UDF file system, disks with iso9660 file systems are assumed to be data discs not DVD-Movie disks, hence the prompt to ask you what to do with the disk.

Have you tried any other DVD’s ?

I just tried several DVDs. They all show output very similar to the above, with Using protocol iso9660://.

Check PM, I am keen to replicate this issue and if you can send us a sample that will help.

OK, I have done. Thanks!
