Perhaps I do not understand. It seems you are asking to make a change to allow DVDs to be indexed. That means that you have to actually get up and put a disc in when you want to play it. There is no way, programmatically, for someone to solve the "I don't know which disc contains the movie I just requested" problem.

You are subsequently requesting that the process be less manual. These seem to be contradictory.

If you want it to be terribly convenient, keep the movies online (not offline as you requested). If you must keep the DVDs offline, I have a simple solution for Linux installations. Build one video file (MKV, MP4, any format) that simply says "Insert the disc now" for a few seconds. Put a link to this file in every movie folder as if it were the actual movie. Set the skin to autoplay DVDs on insertion. This will give you all of the catalog information and allow discs to be used offline.
