I can't reproduce any of those errors here with a Plextor DVD-R/W built 
into a slightly crappy Prolific bridge based enclosure. I tested 
MPlayer, VLC, and Xine; at least the latter two on top of libdvdcss 
1.2.4. I think all of them are Mandrake 10.1 packaged versions with 
certain essential additions from Penguin Liberation Front. I sometimes 
install programs from source instead from prebuilt packages but I don't 
think I did so with these three.

Maybe such problems occur only with certain drives. There is a posting 
at linux-scsi today about problems reading UDF with Pioneer drives if 
attached to an USB or SBP-2 bridge. These are accompanied by entirely 
different errors though.

Maybe Linux' IDE subsystem has some ways of error recovery which the 
SCSI subsystem is lacking...?

(Crossposted to linux-scsi for lack of other ideas. The problem is quite 
certainly not related to the IEEE 1394 subsystem.)
