Re: Using MCE as a DVD server

[Mal Lansell <mal@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sounds reasonable.=20

I use DVDDecrypter and DVD2One/DVDShrink rather than AnyDVD and CloneDVD2.

DVD2One lets me shrink the movie down to save a little server space.  If=20
it a disk with multiple episodes I extract each as it's own little DVD=20
using DVDShrink instead.

There's also no need to make ISOs and play around with Daemon tools -=20
MCE will happily play a video_ts folder.

My Movies 2 looks pretty good too, although I don't use it personally as=20
I already have a DVD database set up on my intranet.
