Development team,
I just recently found a product called Roku HD1000
(http://www.rokulabs.com/products/hd1000/index.php), and generated some
traffic on the mailing lists about. I am just stepping into HDTV, and
just bought a PCHDTV 3000 and am getting it configured. The Roku seems
highly extensible with it's SDK. I will probably buy one soon, with the
goal of getting some level of integration with Myth. It was clear that
the team wasn't very happy with the way that the mvpmc group/project was
working, and I was wondering if the group was open to starting a new
initiative to work with the Roku stuff. If so, how would you recommend
proceeding? I just wanted to start off on the right foot.
For image browsing, you probably want to think about Apple's DMAP protocol
(which is what iPhoto uses to share photos, including container/albums).
Since the Roku audio players do DAAP (a protocol for sharing audio, which
iTunes uses), I would hazard a guess that the HD1000 either already does
DMAP, will do so soon, or could be easily extended to support it. A
standalone server that talks to myth's image gallery code/database and can
serve the content out via DMAP would be a useful way to proceed.
Integrating it into the mfd would be even better :-)
For music, mfd already shares mythmusic audio content out via DAAP, so it
should work with the Roku out of the box (be very interested in hearing if
it doesn't).
why not upnp?
I've been using the Twonky media server (music mode only) to serve my
MythTV music to my new HomePod which uses UPnP.
