Hi Bryan,
Try this and let me know how it works.

#!/bin/bash # iso file is parameter so use "playvid %s " as mythtv play command mountdir="/mnt/dvdiso/"
ext=${1:(-3)} #ext=${file##*.} #ext=$(ls $1 | grep '\.ext');
if [ "$ext" = "ISO" ] || [ "$ext" = "iso" ]; then sudo mount -o loop -t udf "$1" $mountdir xine -pfhq --no-splash dvd://$mountdir sudo umount $mountdir else mplayer -ao alsa -fs -zoom -quiet -vo x11 "$1" fi
This is a neat script, but I'm not sure why you go through the bother of creating, mounting and unmounting a loopback device. Xine needs to treat the file as a device, the OS doesn't. So just tell xine it's a device.
Is anyone using Xine to playback a DVD ISO from hard drive? What command are you using? Any special scripts involved?
As I said, no fancy script. I set xine to use /opt/myth/xinedvd for the dvd device. A simplified player command I use is:
ln -sf movie.iso /opt/myth/xinedvd ; xine dvd:/
To play a real dvd, I just symlink the hardware:
ln -sf /dev/dvd ; xine dvd:/
It works for me. :) James
