Seems kinda pointless since 10.3 has an awesome DVD player. Something useful would be is to create a small program using sockets that checks your email every X minutes and display how many new messages I have in the menubar. I bet this would be useful to alot of people. The POP3 protocol is very easy to use and there are even some POP3 socket classes already written. Good luck

I have been programming for about a little less than a year using RB, and I have yet another project idea. I'm just not sure if it is too big to handle right now. I was thinking I could make my own DVD Player. I mean, you would tell the program the location of the disc, and it would play it. It doesn't need to be fancy right now. Are there plugins or snipits of code that I can use to do the decoding and displaying, or is this project way too complicated for me right now?
