Summary: Adding a specific command for "Play DVD" item in main menu

Description: The main menu offer a "Play DVD" option to directly launch a DVD when detected in drive ... but with external players, this cannot work ( at least with MPC it doesn't ) since the %filename% isn't valid.

I may be wrong, but as soon as you put a dvd into the drive MP will detect this and ask you if you would like to play it (controlled by some config option, giving you Ask, Do nothing or play directly as options). So check your config and this may get you going (or else I did not understand your request )

Yes, but since it's the same command switches than DVD player, this don't work ...

NB: it's with MPC as external player ...

Same problem here with ZoomPlayer. That means that I have to get out of MP and run ZoomPlayer to be able to watch a DvD.
