Hi Tim,
Ripping the dvd won't help you either as XBMC still won't show the
menus, you would have to play the individual vobs for the extras which
would be a right pain in the ass!

The other dvd players are fine, will be fantastic once XBMC can do
menus and surely it can't be that long till it does!! I hope!!

My master plan is to have a media server and then stream everything
from that to the xbox.  I have heard that you can stream iso's to the
xbox but havent tried that yet although that be the most convenient
way of storing ripped dvds!

Let me know if you got any other questions,

HTH

Noel
