Yeah. I don't think this would be very easy to implement. But good to keep in mind now. At least for the number of mythbackends supported. One more easy way to do this might be to make MythBackend be a client of another MythBackend. IE, make one MythBackend be able to use another as a tuner/EPG. You could then schedule recordings based on what was already recorded in the other box. You'd have a local mythbackend on your laptop that syncs with the House mythbackend. You could then reuse all of the scheduling stuff already in Myth. This would mean Moovida would need to support multiple backends though. At very least, one for the local machine and one on the network. This might be a good reason to keep a nonmerged view of the backend. You select a backend to watch from, then you see whats in there. Otherwise, you could have the same file on several backends and it would be confusing which one you were watching/deleting. Kevin > -- > Michał Sawicz <[email protected]> > >
