[mythtv-users] Help Developing MythWeb

[Dave Bixler]

There's an excellent product out there that I use already for streaming 
stuff called SlimServer (http://www.slimdevices.com).  It can stream 
many different types of media.  As I'm fairly new to MythTV development 
as well, I don't know how people feel about integrating existing 
software into the projects.  I too am a Java engineer, though I have 
experience in many different languages.  Just thought I'd point out an 
already existing piece of software that might make writing the music 
section a bit easier.
