To import iso's as video:
Use 'tag on import' (in auto import) and set
Media Type =

Code: [Select]

If(IsEqual([File Type],iso,8),Video,[Media Type])This will change media type of iso's to Video(when importing) and do nothing to other filetypes.

To play them:
instal a virtual drive software(like virtual clone drive) then either
1-set MC to play iso's with an external program and choose the virtual drive software. or
2-associate iso's with the virtual drive software in windows and leave MC playback method as automatic.

Then when the iso's are selected in MC a box pops up as if a DVD was just inserted. Choose play.

This works fine with 3D blu-rays(they play in 2D).
Cover art won't show up automatically. You have to choose Cover Art-->Rebuild thumbnail after they are imported.

Thanks.  You will find most of this covered in the wiki here:

The auto tagging would be a helpful addition.  I have updated it.

Where do I find this 'Tag on import' option?

[MrC]

Tools > Import > Configure Auto-Import... and Edit (or add) the folder path to the media you want tagged.  Look at the bottom of the dialog.

I got that far, just couldn't work out where to type the expression given above.

[MrC]

Under Apply these tags (optional):, select Add, and select Media Type (or Custom > Field > Media Type), and enter the expression.

Just figured it out. Sorry for my n00bness!
