Re: External DVD player for Linux

I had a closer look (ought to have done it earlier!) at the DVD eBay page and it does say USB3.  However, although it lists support for many Windows and Mac versions it doesn't actually state "Linux"  although we know that the Mac is Linux-based. 
I don't know anyone near me well enough to ask to test the device on their computer so I have decided to return the item. 

Many thanks for your advice and suggestions.  Not wasted as I always learn something new. 
If anyone can recommend a USB-based DVD play...
