So it's a regular DVD with MPEG-2 video on it?

This probably doesn't have a UDF filesystem on it. Try mounting it with -t
iso9660 . You may have to turn your automounter off temporarily. Region
codes may be another factor. If you have regionset installed, run "regionset
/dev/scd0" with a DVD in the drive, see what that tells you. Mine says "drive
plays discs from region(s):, mask=0xFF" which makes me think it's region-free,
but I don't know for sure since all I have are region 1 DVDs.

That's a networking message, as the network interface name virbr0 and the MAC
and the IP address should've told you. PROTO 2 is IGMP, which is really not
relevant to your DVD problem. You may want to take your firewall and tell it
to be less verbose.
