[QUOTE="whiskaz, post: 387304, member: 66443"] Attached is a DLL that should allow a second instance of moving-pictures (Moving-Pictures DVD in the config). All you have to do, besides copy the dll to your plugins folder, is make a copy of movingpictures.xml in your skin folder and rename it movingpicturesDVD.xml. Edit movingpicturesDVD.xml and change the <id> from 96742 to 96743. The only issue that I currently experience is some weirdness with fan and coverart when I go from one instance of moving-pics to the other. Sometimes the fan/coverart from the previous instance of moving-pics will hang around until you navigate through the list (in list view - I honestly haven't tested other views).
