Hi,

I am trying to mount a Directory as a DVD rom (for use in linDVD) to save adding all the files manually in the playlist.
Is there an easy way to do this?
or will I have to make an iso from the directory inc VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS and mount this as a virtual drive with the code:

CODE
mount -t iso9660 -o loop filename.iso /media/iso

smplayer is a great mplayer frontend , which can load either ISO images, or VIDEO_TS folders directly. It's desktop independent- just needs qt3 or qt4 (depends on the way it's built)- but no Gnome or KDE binaries.

Sorry, no idea about linDVD. Never used it, and I will never use it in the foreseeable future.

Have you tried dropping the folder onto the player? This method works with Xine.

Have tried the folder drop, but no joy.
SMplayer seems to struggle with the menus and picture is jerky ( as my G3 only has an 8M graphics card), but linDVD plays smoothly.
I guess until I find a solution I'll have to keep adding the files manually or making an iso from the folders.
