if you have a ton of .iso movies on a network server, check out XBMC (XB Media Center) - I’ve played around with a lot of apps, and I really like this one - platform independent - works great with mac and pc.

What if you’ve got a ton of .iso files on a network server? Is there a way for Front Page to handle mounting them? Or do they need to be manually mounted, one at a time, in order for it to work?

I had to mount the root ISO directory as opposed to the VIDEO_TS directory. But after that it worked great. Thanks!

Double click the .iso within Finder, which mounts the file.

Then create a directory within Movies folder, named appropriately for your DVD ISO content. Within that newly create folder, create a symbolic link to the VIDEO_TS folder of your mounted ISO (which should be within /Volumes/ somewhere).

After that, Front Row should be able to find and play the ISO within the Movies folder.

But how do you get Front Row to play a DVD ISO?
