Have you looked at the slink-e ?/

Might do what you want and more (without a custom myth patch/interface)..

I'd be interested in this too... I have one of them here hooked to my Vista
Media Center PC (sorry), that I would like to be able to use when I move
over to Myth.

I finally received my 10 meter firewire cable and have my XL1B1 hooked up
(http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Sony_XL1B2). According to the wiki
there are patches for MythVideo to get some sort of support for it. Does
anyone have these patches? They don't appear to have ever been submitted to
trac.

If not, anyone know how I should start to implement or who has one of these
and would like to lend a hand? Looks like I need to run a command to scan
the DVD inventory, put what I find in the database, do a bulk imdb lookup of
all entries and instead of playing a file when selected, I need to issue a
load command with the appropriate slot number, then play the dvd in
/dev/dvdX. Then I also need a way to do an update scan when I add more discs
to the jukebox. Doesn't sound too hard. :)

Thanks,

Brad
