[mythtv-users] feature wishlist

[Robert Teed]

Ok,
This is something I would like to see, lighting control using x10 modules , 
security cams so if im
in the theater room I can switch to the cams and check the grounds,etc.
MYTH TV is so cool! Thanks to all you folks who have worked on it.

>    (IMDB as source).
>
>  * A small system monitor on the main screen (cpu load, a red
>    recording icon if something is being recorded, countdown to next
>    recording etc).

>    and have reminders on friends' birthdays etc. This could perhaps
>    be fed through the RSS news browser.
