I was playing with MythTV Player for Windows today.  While the stable
version of the program works nicely, the development releases all gave me an
odd error saying that they don't speak protocol version 40.  Apparently the
newer versions only speak older protocol versions 15 to 36.  Thought it was
odd that a newer client would be taking a step backwards like that.

Also, I couldn't find any new development going on in the project via the
forums.  It's as though it was abandoned some time ago.

Haven't found any other windows clients yet, but I haven't finished
searching, either...
