Description Bastien Nocera 2009-10-21 23:52:17 UTC 
Instead of needing to do:
gst-launch playbin2 uri=dvd:///path/to/file.iso
We should be able to do:
gst-launch playbin2 uri=file:///path/to/file.iso

Which would automatically use resindvd to play back the DVD, or play it as a VCD, or warn that the disc image isn't recognised.

<thaytan> to do that: a) typefind iso files b) iso-decoder that looks in the file for VIDEO_TS c) iso-decoder fires a redirect message to redirect to dvd:///path/to/file

this work still requires? In my opinion, it increases complexity.

Better stop writing new code then, and go shopping.
