OK let me explain, I am not issuing any mount commands myself. I place 
the DVD in the drive and close it, wait until it appears in the device 
notifier and select action Open in File Manager, when it opens having 
been mounted by the system at run/media/stuart/DVD_RECORDER the response 
from Dolphin is that the permissions wont allow me to open the root 
directory of the drive for browsing. If I try to play the video using 
Dragon etc again this works OK the permissions it is mounted with do not 
stop that action.

This should work. It does work for every other type of DVD Video that I 
use so long as it is NOT created on the Panasonic DVD Recorder.

I have had a thread open in Fedora forums at 
http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=296874 which you can 
review to see what has been tried.

I dont expect to have to do any mount commands manually - the system 
should handle it for me.
