It is confuling :-)
You must have scsi emulation? You have a cdwriter? I have my cdwriter on
/dev/hdc, but is mounted as /dev/sr0 (which is linked to scd0).
if I do a
# hdparm -i /dev/hdc
/dev/hdc:
Model=Hewlett-Packard CD-Writer Plus 9300, FwRev=1.0b, SerialNo=PJ0027H8TQ
Config={ Fixed Removeable DTR<=5Mbs DTR>10Mbs nonMagnetic }
RawCHS=0/0/0, TrkSize=0, SectSize=0, ECCbytes=0
BuffType=unknown, BuffSize=0kB, MaxMultSect=0
(maybe): CurCHS=0/0/0, CurSects=0, LBA=yes, LBAsects=0
IORDY=on/off, tPIO={min:180,w/IORDY:120}, tDMA={min:120,rec:120}
PIO modes: pio0 pio1 pio2 pio3 pio4
DMA modes: sdma0 sdma1 sdma2 mdma0 mdma1 mdma2
UDMA modes: udma0 udma1 *udma2

If I do

/dev/sr0 not supported by hdparm

So you gotta figure out why your dvd player is using /dev/scd1. It
shouldn't have to as far as I know.

It's linked in the same directory, so I think the '/dev/' is redundant.
I hope you can sort things out. I've spent more sleepless nights than I can
count in solving issues such as this :)
good luck
