The Gnome Totem is a joke which cannot deal with playing DVDs from folder of HDD or *.iso file while Kaffeine works perfectly like a Windoze WinDVD ;-)  Linux better stick with its original Desktop like KDE because trying to emulate that Windoze with things like Gnome is a total disaster...

    I doubt that. I was using xine to handle ISO files 10 years ago. Not that
I bother with that sort of thing anymore. 

    I abandoned complete DVD images a long time ago. It really defeats the 
point of getting rid of the original media if you are going to keep putting 
up with the bother of the original menus.

    Then there's the wasted space aspect, and more modern devices being
fixated on h264, and I'm not even sure that mobile devices could handle 
either variation on trying to preserve unique snowflake of a UI that is
the DVD/BD menu.

    I expect a bit more out of the media I assimilate...
