>> My thoughts as well ...
>>
>>> MythEmail
>>> - email reader, imap or pop ... use libimap ?
>>> - popup OSD option for TV module
>>> - can use it within the TV module like the recording menu, i.e. be
>> able
>>> to read/compose email while watching tv in top right hand corner of
>> the
>>> interface
>>>
>>> MythAnsweringMachine
>>> - I've seen some discussion about this but no work yet has been
>> done
>>> - frontend for vgetty/mgetty?
>>> - option to email you when someone leaves a message
>>>
>>
>> Personally, would never use either ... I'd only do e-mail at my PC,
>> and
>> already have an answering machine. Just me tho.
>>
>> Along these could also be MythIM (for "instant messaging").
>>
>> Typing just isn't going to happen on my sofa ...
>>
>>> MythBrowser
>>> - very simple web browser integrated with the TV module, i.e. surf
>> and
>>> watch TV at same time
>>> - probably pretty easy to do since QT has a lot of this
>> functionality
>>> already.
>>>
>>
>> I haven't used the existing MythBrowser ... something your thinking it
>> doesn't do?
>>
>>> MythDVDDatabase
>>> - this would be a nice option to add to the MythDVD module
>>> - be able to add movies in your collection to the database and
>> retrieve
>>> the IMDB info as well
>>> - option to export or put on the web, publish web page for your
>> database
>>> - can input UPC code, look it up on the web like the cuecat software
>> has
>>> - integrate a barcode reader if you have one or use your webcam as
>> a
>>> barcode reader... this would be a very simple vision algorithm to
>>> implement
>>>
>>
>> This I like ... I've given lots of thought into an
>> opensource/non-windows
>> alternative to DVDProfiler ... a Myth UI would fit the bill.
>> www.dvdempire.com has UPC values on their web pages, so, scrape that
>> and you
>> have the beginings of a UPC to dvd info catalog. A sophisticated perl
>> writer
>> could get UPC to imdb refernce fairly quickly ...
>>
>> This should also include DVD changer support. I have a Kenwood DVD
>> changer,
>> and developed a library to implement it's serial protocol
>> (www.sf.net/projects/juken), SlinkE's could also be used for Sony
>> changers.
>>
>>> MythP2P
>>> - a peer-to-peer client for other mythtv users so we can share files
>> and
>>> add them to our database properly
>>> - i.e. sharing tv shows, music, movies, pictures etc...
>>>
>>
>> Perhaps ... MythShare. Essentially a module that makes it easy to push
>> photos, video clips, etc. Think an interface my mom could use to push
>> a
>> photo or video to my MythShare (and vice versa). I prefer the push mode
>> over
>> p2p since I control who gets the dirty photos/videos of ... well, you
>> get
>> the idea.
>>
>>> MythKaraoke
>>> - a karaoke module could be added to mythmusic, this would be cool
>>>
>>
>> Uh ... no!
