JAM>LTSP-server app approach does not work well. (video-jitter, client=256M) I wish to avoid all JAM>of the sound-deamon trauma.
JAM>Standalone X-servers work perfectly. (TV across the network, not as in local TV cards)
I spent a couple of weekends trying to get MythTV to play ball in the environment that you discussed. I started out trying the LTSP-MythTV path, and I fell back to just trying to get MythTV to work on a standalone box. I quickly realized the Myth is a very slippery slope, and it is under much more rapid development than anything I have come across before.
The experience was painful but educational. I realized how little I know about the insides of Linux and LTSP. >From your posts, you seem to have a much better handle on these two items. Like your post, I came to the conclusion that for Myth to really work, you pretty much need a network boot environment instead of an LTSP-style setup because each machine really needs to run all of that stuff as local apps.
