My backup storage is file based, and I periodically copy the files that
are bacula volumes to DVD.

How can I restore directly from DVD?  The DVD is not being used in a
raw, tape-like way; it simply holds a filesystem that has some of the
volumes on it.

I tried this in bacula-sd.conf
Device {
  Name = File2Storage
  Media Type = DVD/CD
  Archive Device = /media/cdrom0
  Device Type = File;  # not using it as raw DVD
  LabelMedia = no;                   # lets Bacula label unlabeled media
  Random Access = Yes;
  AutomaticMount = yes;               # when device opened, read it
  RemovableMedia = yes;
  AlwaysOpen = no;
}
where File2Storage is the same name as my file-based backups, but the
media type is different.

However, I have not figured out how to tell the restore command to use
that storage.

I'd appreciate any pointers.  I'm using bacula 2.4.3 on Debian GNU/Linux
(lenny).

Thanks.
