NAK.  This patch is wrong, for a very simple reason.  You wrote:

> I used usb cdrom emulation to play video dvd for my daughter

and this demonstrates the error quite plainly.  You can't use _CD_ 
emulation to imitate a _DVD_ -- they are different sorts of media.  
Just think of what happens when you try playing a DVD on a CD player.

A more suitable approach would be to add DVD emulation to the driver.
