I'm going through some cd/dvds with data going back to my graduate school
years and when I put them in the dvd drive they get auto mounted fine
under /run/media/user, except that the directory contents are listed in
Chinese (I think).

If I umount /run/media/user and manually mount the dvd with

mount -t iso9660 -o ro /dev/sr0 /mnt/dvd

then the contents are in plain English, so I suspect it's a matter of
configuration.

The locale is
cat /etc/locale.conf
LANG="en_US.UTF-8"

How is the dvd automounted and how do I configure that to use English?

Running Fedora 41, gnome 47.5.

Thanks!




What file managers are you using?  Have you tried
other file managers?

I had something similar to this.  I had a text file that had
a flyer in it.  Leaf pad would stop reading at the flyer.
Gedit would render everything in Chinese.  Wine's notepad
rendered it fine.

After whacking the flyer (some UTF-16 character I presume),
everyone was happy.
