No, it isn't a plugin.  I just modified mainmenu.xml and 
videodiscs.xml(which I made) for the entry.  A script is ran if MPEG-4 Disc 
is selected that mounts the CD-ROM and play the contains of the disc.  If 
you are still using KnoppMyth as the base of your MythTV setup, you can 
examine the files to reproduce this.  I'm not at home at the moment and 
cannot recall the exact details.
