Hi all!
I have a lot of .iso and .bin CD ROM Images where I have short movies and sometimes .wav and .jpg files on it.
Is it possible to have a file association that automatically mounts the .iso file and plays the movie?
I tried to do it with a VCD, but freevo didn't do anything after I mounted the .iso VCD manually to the default cdrom directory while freevo was running, it didn't noticed it.
Do you have an idea ?
Enable "loopback" support in your Linux kernel, if it isn't already. Then run: losetup /dev/loop0 /path/to/my/isofile.iso mount /dev/loop0 /mnt/cdrom
The image MUST be in native filesystem format, so you can't use .bin files. But you can convert them with bin2iso.
To get Freevo to notice it, add the loopback device to your Freevo CD-Rom list. E.g. you probably have /dev/hdc or /dev/cdrom as one of the devices, add /dev/loop0. The only thing that's tricky is mounting a DIFFERENT image each time. I don't know what Freevo does then. Since it unmounts the disc when it's done I suppose you could use losetup -d to remove the loopback link and losetup to add another to the same device, all out at the command-line.
Regards, Chad
