I just tried this with a Vbox VM.

After hitting "return" on the initial page the screen when white for about 15 
seconds.  Then some lines were printed to the screen.  The last one informing 
that /dev/sr0 had been mounted read-only.  It then sat there for another 5 
minutes before the Welcome screen appeared with the language selection dialog 
displayed.  During the 5 minutes the activity indicator remained on for the DVD.

I just filed https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=882828 with the 
description above since I don't have a clue at the moment how to gather 
additional information.
