[mythtv-users] Ipod Touch youtube player

I am seriously considering buying an ipod touch and was wondering if anybody
in the list have tried any integration with mythtv.    It shouldn't be that
hard to  transcode videos so it will be playable on the ipod touch.    I
have not looked into this yet though but there are howtos everywhere in the
net.  My interest is in the youtube player since there is no flash support
in Safari and therefore mythweb with real time flash encoding (should?) will
not work.    It would be interesting to know how the youtube player works.
I was wondering how it communicates with youtube.com  (http? perhaps).  If
so would it be possible to send it a fake youtube feed that contains a
mythtv playlist transcoded to h264?   Perhaps achieve this with some sort of
squid proxy redirect or some iptables magic.  Does the list have any insight
into this?

Thanks
Chris
