Actually, I discovered that it does play, I just have to wait quite a
while for it. It takes over a minute for it to start, and judging from
the network activity light it's reading from the image the entire time
(meaning it reads a few hundred megabytes before it starts playing for
some reason). Not sure why it doesn't do that when playing the DVD
instead of the image though. The DVD just starts playing right away
(and other images play right away too).
