Greetings,
I am running FC4 (2.6.16-1.2096_FC4) on a MythTV (0.19) system and have 2 problems that seem related (but, what do I know!). I have been combing the forums and it seems that others have seen similar, but I have not seen any solutions posted.
Problem 1: as soon as I insert a DVD movie into the my CDROM/RW DVD/RW (/dev/hda) drive, the following errors start posting to /var/log/messages continuously (@ 1/sec).
Jun 28 23:16:42 localhost kernel: hda: packet command error: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
Jun 28 23:16:42 localhost kernel: hda: packet command error: error=0x54 { AbortedCommand LastFailedSense=0x05 }
This happens with MythTV (with KDE) either loaded or not loaded. However, xine seems to play the movies just fine...up to a point! Which brings me to my second problem: about 1/2 way or so thru the DVD movie (completely legal DVDs, not ripped, not pirated), the movie just stops -- xine just quits. The only errors posted to /var/log/messages are the errors above. And, the movie stops at the same place each time weather from MythTV (using xine) or from xine on the command line.

As you see, my system has one RW/CDROM/DVD and one SATA hard drive.
So, are these problems related? If not, what is causing the errors being posted to the log when a DVD is inserted? And, why do movies stop playing? TIA for your help.
