Why not just use the filemanager?

Just have the relevant myth directories accessable on some other
machine and use that as the transfer point. One of the cool things
about Myth is that it is more "general purpose".

I am not sure that I would want to import photos into my MythPhoto
setup through the remote control or potentially tie up the main TV
in the process.

That was something that always annoyed me about Tivo.
