Actually just found this in the Me-Po menu
<button>
<type>JUMP_MYTHVIDEO</type>
<text>Watch Videos</text>
<action>JUMP MythVideo</action>
<depends>mythvideo</depends>
</button>
<button>
<type>JUMP_PLAY_DVD</type>
<text>Play DVD</text>
<action>JUMP Play DVD</action>
<depends>mythvideo</depends>
</button>
which works like a charm..
I've updated the Wiki with this example.
