In case anyone is intersted, I've put together a release based on XBMC 10.1 that includes my Disc Stub patch.

You can download the needed files here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=IMVF48FD

This release actually contains two of my patches. The latest Disc Stub patch (76 (PR)) and also the latest Slingbox patch (77 (PR)). For more details on the Slingbox patch look here: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?p=757828 .

The zip file only contains the exe file and two other support files. What you need to do is install the original XBMC 10.1 installation and then replace the XBMC.exe file, copy the strings.xml file into the "language/English" folder (overwriting the existing file) and copy the DialogPlayEjectCancel.xml file into the "addons/skin.confluence/720p" folder.

Thanks,
Harry

P.S. In case you're only joining us now, the Disc Stub patch allows a user to create files with a .disc extension (this is the default extension which can be changed). When you try to play one of these files in XBMC, it will ask you to insert the disc and allow you to play it directly from there.

In association with the confluence skins feature (and possibly other skins too) which scans for key words like dvd, bluray, etc. and displays the proper media flags, you can create files like "Finding Nemo.dvd.disc" or "Finding Nemo.bluray.disc" and have the skin display the proper media flags and have XBMC ask you to insert the disc when you try to play the item in your library.

Hope that helps.
