[mythtv-users] LCDProc and Mythtv

[Dan Morphis]

I use the LCD output option.  Works great.  It doesn't do much in live 
tv mode, I don't see much of a need to.  Its most useful in mythmusic.  
Displays what song its on, how much of the song has been played, etc.  
It used to work when you were adding items to the playlist; but that 
broke when Isaac did a big update to mythmusic.  I haven't made the time 
yet to fix that.

It also shows the menus when navigating around.
