Users / is there one interface to play .vob/mkv/xvid files
« on: April 01, 2009, 02:35:57 pm »
Hi all,
I'm totally new to this forum but I'm hoping you will be able to help me. the story goes like this: at present I run a Nas server with 1.2TB of vid files in dif formats such as .mkv .xvid .vob .iso etc. and I'm running mce 2005 as the front end in the lounge and buffalo link theatre in the bedroom and i'm frustrated that there is not just one interface within mce2005 to play them all instead i have to use my video to play .avi's and my dvd to play .vob's and then daemon tools to mount iso. All i want is one front end to play all!!! I also have my videos in parent folders categorised like "horror" "action" etc.. So to this end can some one tell me whether linuxMCE does all that and hopefully better!
cheers in advance
