[mythtv-users] Sync live tweets to recording playback

[Dean Collins]

No I understood it exactly.

The whole reason we built LiveFanChat platform was to "timecode"
comments against events. Think Soundcloud but for sports instead of
music.

What you could also do is work with the LiveFanChat database to replay
the chats on a second by second basis synced to a recorded mythtv
recording.

So basically the mythtv platform would be taking messages from people in
your social graph and displaying them sync'd to the LiveFanChat chat
rooms that occurred live previously.

When I pitched this to the myth list a year ago Second Screen wasn't as
well understood as it is now.

 
Cheers,
Dean
