[mythtvnz] CDROM Locked

[Duncan Kennington]

I recommend doing the following:

To /usr/share/mythtv/dvdmenu.xml (or opticalmenu.xml - I can't remember which
OTOMH) add
<button>
<type>DVD_EJECT</type>
<text>Eject DVD</text>
<action>EXEC eject</action>
</button> 

You could also map the Eject button (if there is one on your remote) in lircrc
to irexec

begin
button = EJECT
prog = irexec
repeat = 0
config = eject
end
