Link? Do you mean mount (as loopback)? Doesn't the DVD plugin normally 
access /dev/dvd (the device) directly?

Yes that's its nature :)

The PlugIn tries to mount each drive you specify on the commandline, by 
passing it's mount point name to mount.sh. The operating system's mount 
command identifies the device name by the corresponding /etc/fstab entries. 
So if you want the image to be recognized, I guess you'll have to add an 
appropriate fstab entry :-)

Maybe I'll find another solution when I understand the above correctly :)
