Here’s how you can change that.

Registry editing time! Click start - run - type in ‘regedit’.

Navigate to:
HKEY_Classes_root\DVD\Shell\Play\Command\

Edit the ‘DefaultValue’ and change to “<path to your dvd player> /DVD “%L”

Close regedit, and give it a try.

Didnt work as is for me. For VLC i had to remove the “” around the %L but otherwise great tip
