Xine, DVD's & VCD's
Adding these lines to mainmenu.xml:

<button>
<type>DVD</type>
<text>DVD</text>
<action>EXEC xine --auto-play=fh dvd5://</action>
</button>

<button>
<type>VCD</type>
<text>VCD</text>
<action>EXEC xine --auto-play=fh vcd://1</action>
</button>

fires up xine and let's me watch DVD's and VCD's (with the appropriate plugin
for dvd of course, and it assumes the first track for vcd's) from
mythfrontend. It opens xine, makes it full-screen and hides the gui. There
may be other options to add to the command lines. Please let me know.

YMMV.
