If I may interject... I am SOOOoooo looking for
this feature too. Basically, I have a whole bunch
of data DVDs with various stuff archived on them
(shows, movies, clips, etc). Currently, I load
them onto my MythTV box by inserting them into my
Mac and copying them over the network. Of course,
the WAF for this is very low. I would love to be
able to insert one of these DVDs in the drive of
my Myth box and navigate the directories to play
the files directly from MythVideo.

On my box I simply made a symlink in my MythVideo dir to /dev/dvd or whatever it was called. Insert disc, browse to dir, play files. :)


I think you have to install an automounter for this to work though, can't remember which one I had (or if it was built into MythTV itself). I do remember disabling it since it wouldn't let go of the disc when I was done with it, forcing me to ssh to the box and issue an "eject -something" command...
