I guess a MythTV backend can run on a monitor-less PC
while the content is streamed to the frontend. Is that
correct?

Can I reduce the resolution before streaming since I
want to stream over the Internet?

While we are at it: what happens if there is a
firewall between backend and frontend?

TIA,
Arno
