CD-DVD not working - gfric90 - 07-09-2019

Hi, I'm new to both linux and linux lite, I've been trying to read a DVD but VLC keeps showing this message:

Code:
VLC media player 3.0.4 Vetinari (revision 3.0.4-0-gf615db6332)

[000055b6ce684570] main libvlc: Running vlc with the default interface. Use 'cvlc' to use vlc without interface.

qt5ct: using qt5ct plugin

qt5ct: D-Bus global menu: no

qt5ct: D-Bus system tray: no

[00007fc1700015f0] filesystem stream error: cannot open file /home/ricardo/dvd (No such file or directory)

So I read some of the post down here and execute the inxi -d command and the output was the following:

Code:
Drives:    HDD Total Size: 500.1GB (3.6% used)

           ID-1: /dev/sda model: TOSHIBA_MK5076GS size: 500.1GB

           Optical-1: /dev/sr0 model: hp CDDVDW TS-L633R

           dev-links: cdrom,cdrw,dvd,dvdrw

           Features: speed: 24x multisession: yes

           audio: yes dvd: yes rw: cd-r,cd-rw,dvd-r,dvd-ram

and the wodim --devices command says the following:

Code:
wodim: No such file or directory. 

Cannot open SCSI driver!

For possible targets try 'wodim --devices' or 'wodim -scanbus'.

For possible transport specifiers try 'wodim dev=help'.

For IDE/ATAPI devices configuration, see the file README.ATAPI.setup from

the wodim documentation.

also run the wodim -checkdrive:

Code:
Device was not specified. Trying to find an appropriate drive...

Detected CD-R drive: /dev/cdrw

Using /dev/cdrom of unknown capabilities

Device type    : Removable CD-ROM

Version        : 5

Response Format: 2

Capabilities   : 

Vendor_info    : 'hp      '

Identification : 'CDDVDW TS-L633R '

Revision       : '0400'

Device seems to be: Generic mmc2 DVD-R/DVD-RW.

wodim: Cannot load media with this drive!

wodim: Try to load media by hand.

Using generic SCSI-3/mmc   CD-R/CD-RW driver (mmc_cdr).

Driver flags   : MMC-3 SWABAUDIO BURNFREE 

Supported modes: TAO PACKET SAO SAO/R96P SAO/R96R RAW/R16 RAW/R96P RAW/R96R

I don't really know how to access directly by hand to the device or solve this issue, everything else is working fine, i have the "mount" option checked in the settings manager, i also tried installing the Restricted Extras.

Final output, i promise, this time was sudo lshw -C disk :

Code:
*-cdrom

       description: DVD-RAM writer

       product: CDDVDW TS-L633R

       vendor: hp

       physical id: 0.0.0

       logical name: /dev/cdrom

       logical name: /dev/cdrw

       logical name: /dev/dvd

       logical name: /dev/dvdrw

       logical name: /dev/sr0

       version: 0400

       capabilities: removable audio cd-r cd-rw dvd dvd-r dvd-ram

       configuration: ansiversion=5 status=open

So, thanks in advance for your patience and hope i can solve this.

When you go Menu, Open Disc, does it show your Disc device as /dev/sr0:

Enter the file system of the dvd, and open VIDEO_TS.IFO with VLC as standard.
