I posted this on the Xlobby forum for anybody interested, here it is.

After playing with this for quite a while, I thought it would be a REAL problem. Girder methods may work but the gml that was posted in another thread, didn't work for me (not to mention it is a very sloppy method if it does work). I think it may have been for an old version of Powerdvd anyways.

I have quite a few hd-dvd's on my hard drive and want very much to play them through Xlobby. I was thinking since .evo is the file format of hd-dvd's, that would be the extension to associate. Wrong.

In editing the .xpl file (hd-dvd's version of xml), I released that by launching just this file, it would in fact play the entire directory (read, the hd-dvd movie). So, I associated Powerdvd with .xpl, and added "%parameter%" without the quotes. After you add the movie directory, it will be picked up as adj_obj, as that is the associated dir. Just go into the database and rename it whatever movie, and wallah, Perfect HD-DVD playback within Xlobby. Next stop...Blu Ray.

Hope this helps somebody.

Actually you can play m2ts with Zoom player. No menu but you do get the benefit of Zooms Vmr9 exclusive renderless (albeit buggy).
