I'm using a single backend and multiple frontends. The problem I have is that some of my clients har connected to the backend with a limited bandwidth. That means that I want different livetv-configurations depending of witch client are connecting to the BE.
Don't know.

I also wonder whats the difference between watching a recorded tvshow and just an mpegmovie. Both shows resides om the BE. From an remote FE I can watch the recorded tvshow without any NFS/SMB-mount to the BE, but if I want to watch the MPEGmovie I must first do a mount.
The recordings are streamable by the mythbackend process for playback by the mythfrontend process. The videos ("mpegmovie") are played by a frontend-only plugin, MythVideo, which is usually configured to use an external media player (like xine or MPlayer). Since NFS/Samba are so easy to set up on *nix, it doesn't make sense to add code to allow streaming to whichever player the user decides he/she wants to use.
