No need to switch back and forth IMO. It's not as if it'd be a frequent operation.
IMO all that would need doing is storing the path as an offline path (using a special dvd url)
eg something like
That way it's "easy" to filter out the offline ones (though I don't see the point) and "easy" to format up an "insert disk" dialog.
Anyone wanting to do a patch might want to start as follows:
1. Allow (and detect) scanning of dvd based files, and configure the path in the database suitably (possibly prompting user for dvd name)
2. Handle the OnClick() system to prompt user for disk, then translate database into real path.
3. Handle any "special case" settings, such as disallowing queuing and so on.
