Hi there! I’m using Manjaro KDE edition.
When I was trying to use one of my dvds; I can’t find it on my file manager(dophin).
I don’t know what’s the reason of that.
Please help me 
Is this only one specific dvd,
or all dvds inserted ?

Is it an external DVD? Is it a data disk or movie? Do you understand how to mount drives? Checked in the Devices panel of Dolphin to see if it’s there? Do you have the kio-slaves installed? If it’s a movie, can you play it with a media player?
for all dvds
no that’s built-in.
data disk.
Yes I do but my computer doesn’t notify me that the dvd is detected.
It doesn’t show my dvd.
How can I install that?
I can’t find the dvd on dolphin.
Only a partial answer to @andreas85 post.
The output of the command:
sudo inxi --admin --verbosity=7 --filter --no-host --width
should list, among other things, the optical drive
