I appreciate all the mount hints, but this makes me realize that maybe
my question should have been more specific.

I already figured that I'd probably need to mount it via loop back
(either that, or maybe mplayer could somehow take the name of the iso
directly, and play the raw image, like a physical dvd). My question
is, once I mount it, (if playing the iso directly won't work), how do
I play what's mounted with mplayer? After all, we're not talking about
a single avi or mpg file here, a dvd has many files on it, with lots
of different extensions.
