I did what you suggested, and now I really can't get access to dvd's 
anymore. I went back to noauto, but that didn't help either. I even 
completly replaced the fstab with copy & paste from what I posted here. 
No luck. I honestly don't understand why this happened. It used to open 
a windows with the files before, no it does nothing, not even an error 
message. :(
