If the problem is seek time, this won't help as much as you think it might. 
Try it and see.

This is what I'm guessing will give you the best shot.

I don't know about that, but I created an autorun file for my vacation 
photos on one DVD. Here's what I had to do:

AUTORUN.INF holds
[autorun]
open=showme.bat
icon=italy.bmp

italy.bmp is a 64x60 BMP image. I'm pretty sure white is transparent, but 
play around with it.

showme.bat holds one line reading
start index.html

index.html is the top of the image tree.

Apparently, it needs to be ASCII and not UTF.

HTH!  It'll at least get you started. :-)
