   csstest can only work on devices and on files that can be read. If
the file is on a mounted DVD, the drive will prevent the operating
system from reading it, so you need to access the device instead. Could
you please try again using the device name, eg. "csstest /dev/hdc 1024"?

   Also, setting the environment variable DVDCSS_VERBOSE=2 will give you
debug information that can be helpful to us.

   That's right. I'll see what can be done here.
