Yes, I think it was that prog that creates a couple of DVD dummy files
for each track. This is ugly is hell (the concept, not the code) as well
as the whole idea of playing DVDs with mplayer.

So you want the MPlayer plugin to become a DVD plugin Mark II.

And I answered with:
Better forget mplayer - if you want to code then better fix the DVD-Plugin ;)
As the still-picture/menu problem seems to be fixed, it works quite nice
so far.

(I would do it myself (probably), but I don't know much about C++)
