Full screen mount ISO and Play

Post by lannp »

Here is something I would love to be able to do, and need some help: My movies are stored as ISO images. For each entry in DVDPedia database, I make two links: one to the ISO image on the disc and one to the corresponding VIDEO_TS folder. These links appear in the View display. To play a given movie in the View display, I click the ISO link. That mounts the ISO image (that has 2 folders, VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS) Another click on the VIDEO_TS link plays the movie.

How can I do this in Full Screen mode using only the Apple remote and Remote Buddy? If the ISO image has already been mounted, it's easy, I map a remote key to Option P to play. But if the ISO has not been mounted, can I use the Apple remote to mount it? If that is doable, what are the equivalent key clicks?

Of course, I can mount ALL the ISO at start, then I can play any of the movies with just a remote key click, but I want to be able to play only a few selected movies without mounting all the ISO on the disc drive (which clutters the desktop and takes lots of time.)

I have updated the current beta so that when you have an .iso link it check inside the mounted volume for a VIDEO_TS folder, if it find one it plays it. Get the DVDpedia beta and with linked .iso DVD files the movie should start playing.
