I actually meant watching Live TV, although the other I had almost
forgotten about.

Is it at all possible to have multiple frontends watch the same backend

What would be ideal for me is to have them all display the dish network
channel, and have any of them able to change the channel.
Right now I usually end up having to either go into the other room and
stop the front end's viewing tv, or killing it via a kill command, which
then usually requires killing and restarting the backend as well.
Perhaps I'm doing something wrong. I'm using the .16 ebuild for gentoo..
In my case multiple = 2, but it could equal 3 in the future.
I suppose this would require sending the compressed datastream to two or
more terminals at once. Perhaps a multicast list? I'm not sure.
At any rate I was just curious if any of this was possible or perhaps
just a matter of me doing something differently.
I'm assuming you're not talking about the frontends watching Live TV,
but watching a scheduled recording. I don't know the answer if you're
talking about Live TV. Once the recording's started I think you should
be able to just pick it from the recordings menu in any
(theoretically) number of frontends and view it.

Phill
