Hi,

thanks Duncan, this is useful, but my questions is about "item" inside
a plugin. The example code of a "item" plugin says that you have to
define a "action" function. This function get a "item" parameter. What
kind of attributes this "item" has? what kind of values should I
expect? When selecting a DVD, should I expect a disc-id attribute
also?

I´m trying to write a kind of  "archive" plugin. The idea is to be
able to insert a disc, selecting the disc, and run the plugin. The
plugin should find the fxd files and copy them to a folder in the HD.
The plugin should also re-write a few tags in the fxd file like <file
id="f1" media-id="<disc-id>"><path_to_disc>/movie</file>, so when I
select this fxd file, freevo will ask for the disc, and them,
hopefully, play it :-)

I did this a couple of times before by hand, but its a boring task...
put the disc, look inside the vfs folder, find the disc-id, copy the
fxds, edit the file entries, etc...

Another related question: shouldnt we modify freevo to let it generate
the same id for the same disc everytime? the current way seems to use
the disc "name" and a timestamp, so if for some reason you delete the
cache, you lost all the ids...
