I'm currently making changes to the new graphical setup to allow a user
to completely setup MythTV with only a remote.
Changes:
- When mythtv runs for the first time it checks if the database has
required values; if not the setup is ran.
- Gateway, DNS servers and all networking options can be setup from
mythsetup (only one network card for now). Kind of an imposing feature
on the system, but necessary for stand-alone myth boxes.
- The text boxes for inputting IP addresses will be replaced with four
text boxes and "." graphics in between. [___] . [___] . [___] . [___] if
that explains it at all. I don't know if this is supported yet but the
user will be able to punch in numbers from the remote and use
back-forward buttons to navigate them.
- All features that aren't necessary to configure inputs/outputs or get
the box working functionally will be moved into an "advanced" section,
so there is minimal configuration required to get the box working for
the average user.
My question is about the replacement IP address box. Should I define a
new special textbox or just use 4 existing textboxes and code in the
tabbing and needed code into mythsetup?
