I can't play or mount dvd's. Looking at the above...permissions.
What do I do?

Did you follow the link chain? For me it is
bp:~$ ls -lad /dev/dvd*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 8. Okt 07:12 /dev/dvd -> /dev/cd/dvd-0:0:0:0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 8. Okt 07:12 /dev/dvd0 -> /dev/cd/dvd-0:0:0:0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 8. Okt 07:12 /dev/dvdrw -> /dev/cd/dvdrw-0:0:0:0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 8. Okt 07:12 /dev/dvdrw0 -> /dev/cd/dvdrw-0:0:0:0
bp:~$ ls -lad /dev/cd/dvd*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 8. Okt 07:12 /dev/cd/dvd-0:0:0:0 -> ../sr0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 8. Okt 07:12 /dev/cd/dvdrw-0:0:0:0 -> ../sr0
bp:~$ ls -lad /dev/sr*
brw-rw----+ 1 root optical 11, 0 8. Okt 07:12 /dev/sr0
It is the final destination which counts. It must exist and have group permissions set to "optical" as above.
Then, is your user in group "optical" as well?
To know or not to know ...
... the questions remain forever.
