in regards to totem being able to play the DVD, it could possibly be
that totem has a UDF parser within it, and is reading the raw device and
hence ignores the permissions.

In regards to UDF permissions, a possible solution (possibly hack) to
the issue instead of getting rid of permission entirely

1) mount disk on insertion
2) check if it's video DVD (AUDIO_TS/VIDEO_TS folder)
3) check perms
3a) if invalid, remount with option to sanitize perms
