In case anyone is interested, I've made a few modifications to MythWeb to
allow me to click on a program and play the file directly from a samba share
into Windows Media Player. I use this in conjunction with the DSMyth Direct
Show filters for windows to play recorded programs on my Windows box. The
main advantage of this over HTTP sreaming is the ability to use the seek
bar. This is done by dynamically creating a .asx playlist containing the
.nuv which can be associated with Media Player. I've attached the php script
( place it in the root mythweb direcotry) for generating these files, as
well as a .diff to make the necessary changes within MythWeb. I'm a little
new at creating patches, so I apologize in advance if it's not quite
standardized :)
