[mythtv-users] Use shell script to load dvd?

[Richard Shaw]

I had an idea and wanted to run it buy you folks! My myth box doesn't 
have a keyboard or mouse attached, just a remote, so changing settings 
that require a typed input can be a real pain. I already started using a 
config file for mplayer so I can make changes over SSH and not require a 
reboot (since I haven't got my power button to work to restart 
mythfrontend). So I created a script called xine-dvd.sh in the home 
directory. I assume this will work for DVD playback since I'm calling 
dvd:/ instead of passing a text string of the file name. If I want to 
set this up for other playback options will the %s pass to the shell script?

Thanks,
Richard
