I ordered a cheap DVD player for my Dell Latitude E5570 laptop running Ubuntu 20.04 but it didn't work. It wasn't even recognised by VLC or the file manager and the df command did not list it. I tried it on another laptop (Lenovo T500) running Ubuntu 18.04 and on a desktop (Asus P6) running MX (Debian) and they didn't see it either. So I returned it to eBay.
I thought I would try a slighty more expensive player (OK, only £22) and that wasn't recognised by any of my computers either.
These thing...
