xine will happily play iso's. Dunno if MythTV currenly handles
the syntax for xine ISO correctly though. In my current test setup I
have a shell script wrapper for xine to deal with it's quirkiness.
Basically, xine requires you to reference an iso as if it were
a directory (trailing slash) and requries a full path be specified for
the iso file.
Freevo handles these transparently though.
