Yes, that's much clearer. In other words, MythStream is a stream client, while MythStreamTV is a stream server.

Confusing choice of name though, I agree that it should probably be changed to avoid further confusion.

Funny you mention it, because I was --> <-- this close to saying something myself. Before I put my foot in my mouth I double checked and realized that MythStream also streams video, although I think it still only supports the ShoutCast-type internet streams, not MPEG streams.

More specifically, MythStream is a Myth frontend plugin for *browsing & playback* of streams that originate external to Myth. Presumably it can do video as well as audio streams if you configure an appropriate external app to play the stream. MythStreamTV is for *originating* streams of recorded MythTV content that can then be played using your favorite streaming client (plus a patch to MythWeb that provides an interface for requesting said streams).
