Hi folks, I've got a problem with a Samsung SATA dvd writer: It doesn't play video DVDs. If I connect the same drive via an adapter to USB, then there is no such problem. dmesg says: ata2.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen ata2.00: (BMDMA stat 0x1) ata2.00: tag 0 cmd

Hi folks, I've got a shiny new sata dvd writer: A Samsung SH-183A, most recent firmware SB01. Writing data DVDs is _lightning_ fast, but I cannot watch my css-encrypted movie DVDs, even with libdvdcss installed. If I try, then it becomes unresponsive. dmesg says: ata2.00: exception Emask 0x0
