Modded AMP to use VLC instead of DVD

Hi,

With my current iCar setup I didn't have a internal DVD drive and sadly DVD Player doesn't support Firewire or USB DVD drives. My only hope for DVD use was to use VLC. Well I tricked AMP to use VLC instead of using DVD Player. This is how it was done.

Deleted DVD Player and it's App support files in /Users/(MYUSER)/Library/Application Support

Then changed the label of VLC to DVD Player. Then I went into the contents of VLC and edit the file called Pkginfo to

APPLcfbs

After that I created a file called version.plist


<?xml version="1.0 encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "=//Apple computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList/List-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>BuildVersion</key>
<string>11</string>
<key>CFBundleShortVersionString</key>
<string>4.6.5</string>
<key>ProjectName</key>
<string>DVDPlayer</string>
<key>SourceVersion</key>
<string>46500506</string>
</dict>
</plist>


I lauched AMP and crossed my fingers and hit DVD and VLC launched.
