In 10.1 magicdev is used to launch applications when a CD/DVD is inserted.
Magicdev gets its configuration from /etc/gconf/schemas/magicdev.schemas.

Depending on the type of media detected it will launch one of the scripts in
/etc/dynamic/user-scripts
I do  not know why your DVDs are being detected as blank media, but if you 
edit those scripts you can make it launch whatever you want.
