I am not in from of the computer right now to check some of the other stuff but i figured that would do to start.

Anyway, I don't really have a problem as much as a question. I have the one drive with video's and music on it and another drive I use for backing up DVD's. I don't know if i overlooked something but i would LOVE to add a selection on my home screen for "DVD's." Basically, I want it to work exactly as the Video's section does. I can kinda get this to work with My MPlayer but it does not handle some of the Anime format's I have and it will not play the VOB files that i ripped from my DVD's.

I looked through the tutorial on creating your own plugin. If i had to i could probably figure it out but it would take me far to long to, what amounts to, emulate the MyVideo's plugin that is in by default. I basically want to have thast functionality, but rename it to "DVD's" instead of videos on the main home screen. I could, with a lot of time, write a plugin but it would take me forever as I know no C#.

If there is something I am missing please let me know!
