I want to rip my DVDs to .iso format and be able to mount and play the

I would like to control the system via remote control. I do not want
to pull out a keyboard in order to play a movie.
I would enjoy a nice gui that will download movie description/box
covers etc from amazon or imdb.
If the thing can play transport stream HDTV encodes, that is icing on the cake.
Does MythTV support playing directly from .iso files?
MythTV can launch MPlayer or Ogle, both of which support playing DVD
images. Ogle supports DVD menus, but MPlayer does not. MPlayer
supports LIRC easily, but LIRC support for Ogle may require a little
hacking.

BTW, while we're on the topic... I bought a PVR-250 a few months ago for
MythTV. The remote didn't work very well until I realized I had
received the remote commonly distributed with the PVR-350. Once I
installed the LIRC configuration for the PVR-350 remote, the remote
worked nicely. So if anyone is running into a similar problem, try the
LIRC configuration for all of the Hauppage remotes.
Also, the PVR-150 is significantly less expensive than the other models.
It wasn't supported when I was buying, but the IVTV project seems to
support it now. If I were building a PVR today, I think I'd go for the
PVR-150.
