[QUOTE="Mars Warrior, post: 2644, member: 10351"] Nice idea! However I think there is a fairly easy way to accomplish this in a slightly different way. The way it works right now is that MP can recognize a DVD on harddisk, simply by checking the directory structure. What I know that works already is to create an empty structure (name of DVD as a directory and a VIDEO_TS subdirectory) and MP already is able to find the movie information without having the actual DVD on hard disk! If the play command would test the prescence of the actual DVD data, and if absent ask for the DVD to be inserted into the DVD drive, you get the required functionality quite cheap. Of course that does NOT provide you with the ability to simply import your DVDs into MP. This "solution" has some manual touch to it :wink: [/QUOTE]
