Yes... quite surprising that there isn't any way to add in support for the mouse. Irony for one of the original Macs, eh? (Don't tell me about the Lisa and the Xerox Alto... it is a joke...)

And this would have to be both the backend and the frontend, the way the system is being designed. Not quite enough space for two computers here, but MythWifi is neat.

As you found out, using this box as any sort of MythBackend/ MythFrontend is totally out of the question. That said, you CAN use it to control your
mythfrontend.

Install any sort of OS with a Web Browser (pick one with driver support for
your screen). Then look at something called MythWifi.

Subject: [mythtv-users] Multiple Screen Support?

I'm eyeing an old Macintosh 512K as the box for my MythTV computer.
I would want to replace the internal CRT display with a touchscreen.
This way, MythTV's control functions are always visible but the video
can be sent to the main TV for games, DVDs, TV, etc.

I hope that makes sense-- a control screen and a display screen, if
you want a very simplified view of it.
Does such functionality exist in MythTV?

Thanks,
Brandon


myth mouse support for touchscreens would be nice though, if only for the menu
structure. mouse gestures could be used for non-button actions.

throwing the thought out there as I plan on building a myth frontend for my mom to use in the kitchen (the folks are remodeling) and having a touchscreen for that envorinment would be great (along with a remote control of course
for the regular actions).
