Re: [Mvpmc-devel] DVD Support

[<ge...@ac...>]

I think there are two directions we could go with this.

First, we could allow you to watch DVDs via your filesystem.  This would
allow you to watch a DVD via NFS or CIFS, much like xine can play a DVD
off a filesystem with full menu navigation.

Second, we could rely on a server such as mythtv to feed the video to the
mvp.  I don't know if myth or videolan or anything else would really support
this type of thing.

Of course, before we really start worrying about this, I think we need to
fix some outstanding issues with AC3 audio.  You can watch mpegs with AC3
audio now, but often you'll have problems with audio/video sync.
