Martin,
I tried out your new mvpmcx2. It now allows me to to run my ISO DVD movie files like a normal dvd(able to interact with menus). But I still can't get the dvd drive on my computer to work the same way. Here is whats in my gbpvr.cgi file:

cd ~
mkdir /etc/mvpmc >/dev/NULL
echo "";

if [ -f /etc/mvpmc/mvpmcx2 ]
then
echo "Already Connected!";
else
mkdir /etc/mvpmc
mount -t cifs //192.168.0.4/mvpmc /etc/mvpmc/ -o username=guest,ro;
mkdir /mnt/\\\\192.168.0.9\\Movies
mount -t cifs //192.168.0.9/Movies /mnt/\\\\192.168.0.9\\Movies -o username=guest,ro
mkdir /mnt/D:\\
mount -t cifs //192.168.0.4/DVD /mnt/D:\\ -o username=guest,ro
cp /etc/mvpmc/utelnetd /usr/bin;
utelnetd -l /bin/sh -p 23 &
ln -s /lib/librmjpeg.so /lib/libjpeg.so.62
ln -s /lib/librmzlib.so /lib/libz.so
ln -s /lib/librmzlib.so /lib/libz.so.1
ln -s /lib/librmzlib.so /lib/libz.so.123
echo "Telnetd started on port 23............";
fi

killall gaya
sh -c /etc/mvpmc/startmeup 2>/dev/null >/dev/null &

The line in my gbpvr config is:
\\192.168.0.4\DVD

When I try it the Popcorn movie screen loads and then it returns the to gbpvr menu. I set-up the drive as a share with the name of "DVD". It think its set-up properly. When I type \\192.168.0.4\DVD in explorer it gives me the directory listing of the dvd in the drive. The dvd is not protected.
Any ideas on how I can get this to work? Thanks in advance!

Don't mix and match \\192.168.0.4\DVD and D:\ between GBPVR's config.xml and mvpmcx2's /mnt folder, choose the same for both. Because it is a local drive (and to save changing your script) changing config.xml to D:\ should do it. No guarantees on performance, Windows share from a fast drive is pushing it as is.

Martin,

This new version mvpmcx2 works for me too with the same setup as before. I am able to view iso file now. Thanks.

Good news all around. I like programming, it's the only "job" I can think of where everyone thanks me for fixing my stupid mistakes.

Ok, I changed my config.xml to D:\, but it still doesn't work. I'm not sure what to try next. I can get it to work using the pch menus. It runs just like a normal dvd where you can interact with the menu's.

[mvallevand]

If you can post a telnet capture like pBS did with your GBPVR logs that will help.

doesn't the : need a \ also? like : /mnt/D\:\\

[mvallevand]

I use the escaped colon \: for style and because bash auto-completion with the tab key does it that way, but I don't think it is necessary on the PCH. You can check if ln /mnt show /mnt/D:\ or not.

Martin,
Here is a hyperterminal capture. I think I did right. It kept running and running so eventually I just closed it up.
