in your video / movie folder for xbmc you need to put the ISOs there and use the white button to start scan content.
You can play the files from there as well.
Well, so I have copied the Movie-Mall Cop to my HDD, for now it is on the F:/drive, into it's own folder called Mall Cop made threw DVD2Xbox using the Y Button settings, once on the F:/drive I did not like that location so I made a folder called Movies moved Mall Cop to that folder checked what ISO I copied to the F:/drive, which is two ISO images, .part00.iso, .part01.iso, now found your continuing directions with using the white button under > Videos > my Movies folder > Mall Cop from there hit the White button to get Context Menu Dialog Box with no

to Scan Content, ok so if I proceed into Mall Cop folder and again get another Context Menu note that both the different locations for this White Button function has completely different selections to chose from, none of which have Scan Content.
But never the less wes, I think I have to be honest that the movie didn't copy right, it took for ever, then when I checked up on it, because the HDD Led I have got setup on my rig was not blinking or functioning for at least an hour and a half like it normally does when I copy something, I proceeded to just open my DVD player to see if it was even running, then closed it back up, it was coping files in megabytes really slow but not like it did when I put the CD back in then it finished, in less than five minutes which was strange. Any how to make a longer story even longer I had to take the movie back and well, will have to get another one to try and copy it correctly, because having had tried all the selection to chose from in both the Context Menus and nothing, I do get though, in the Mall Cop folder > White Button > Option [Play Using...] on the .part00.iso file > another Context Menu with selections DVDPlayer (Default) and MPlayer, hit DVDPlayer and nothing happens, hit MPlayer it loads to a black screen which I thought was scanning cause the HDD Led is functioning and well after a few minutes still nothing, let me keep this post open and when I get another movie I will check it and try it again.
If you can read threw this, maybe I am still not doing things correctly? _________________ Support A Hard Modder!

That should help with setting the content bro, and you need to be online for this.
This info could be helpful, have tried already, still not functioning, I think I ran into a bad scan, like in this section under "Additional Information"

If you would like to remove the entire video database (after a bad scan, or for whatever reason) you can simply remove/rename the file called MyVideos*.db in the UserData-directory (see The UserData Folder to find out where the UserData Folder is located on your installation). Restart XBMC and the IMDb information can be rescanned.
*TIP!: If you like to use lookup to catalog off-line DVD-Video library (or other movies stored on DVD/CD media) see:
HOW-TO catalog and use lookups on your offline DVD/CD movie library by creating fake files
I had tried to scan for a IMDb database movie, did not work...
I also notice it does not give an info on .iso, but it does give info on .avi and .IFo file like I had but thought that those were the wrong files to have so I tossed them.
Again THX!
I have some homework to do so I will give it another go when I have time. _________________ Support A Hard Modder!
