File sharing through BT, RSS etc is not IPTV... IPTV is streamed video, often using multicast IP. It will compete with cable TV in the future so there may be a case for it in MythTV. For regular customers a set-top box will be provided which may have firewire like current cable STBs. Hamish -- Hamish Moffatt VK3SB <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
