newbie questions: actual DVD and starting external programs in the background

[ironjazz]

Hi.

Thanks all for the previous tips.

I'm in need of some advice on how to do the following:

1) Playing actual dvds on the DVD-rom drive. I've registered my GameEX, and i ensured that the DVDPath=D:\ (D: being my DVD-ROM drive letter). Whenever i select Play DVD, it just goes to a black screen and back.

Manually playing the same DVD on WMP 10 is fine.

Is there somewhere else that i need to change ?

2) I think the Radio feeds cannot handle realaudio feeds yet. If so, i tried a workaround with mediaplayer classic, where i use a batch file to start mplayerc "feedurl" and put it in the external programs section. I can launch the player and listen to the stream, but this made gameex into the *invisible* background.

i wonder if there's a way to launch the batch file (with the feed), and get back into gameex w/o interrupting the audio. and for gameex to stop that feed by killing the mplayerc process before launch a game or something??
