Inserting into software, boom boom.
Actually its the computer program that your DVD player runs to instruct all the hardware what it is supposed to do. It is responsible for everything from decided what to do when you press buttons on your remote control to displaying menus on your extra filled DVD.

When a device does not do what it should. ie when the matrix first came out a lot of players couldnt play it. updating there firmware sorted it out. the toystory box set is another disc that does not work on a lot of players.
the problem is that the spec of DVD is so lose. it can be read as diffrent things by diffrent makers.
