I've been thinking a bit more... Wouldn't all of this be way easier if we just built a TV Server plugin that exposed the MythTV Protocol? I'm sure there's obstacles I haven't thought about yet, but does anyone see any impossible challenges in going this route? Right away the only major pitfall I see is that in emulating mythtv backend, we limit tvserver to what mythtv can do, and have to try and map 1:1 in capabilities.... Though, the unified pvr is targetting mythtv to start anyways so likely this would be the case no matter what...Also, the video streaming may be a difficulty... looks like myth points to just a mpg file to pull in as the stream... not sure if we'll have problems here or not...
