<div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">2. DSMYTH<br><br>I don't fully understand how this one works. I thought I found a<br>description on a DsMyth web page once, but I can't find it again. What's
<br>the link? All I could find was a main page with lots of news. It looks<br>like it's mostly concerned with getting Windows Media Player to play the<br>files commonly stored on mythTV machines and possibly uses VLC to stream the
<br>files????? I'd rather not put anything on the Windows client side. I'd<br>like guests to be able to turn on their laptops and watch myth stuff (but<br>this might be too harsh a requirement.)</blockquote><div><br>I've never used it but from what I understand DSMyth provides 2 things a .nuv codec, which you don't need because you're using a hardware encoder, and the myth:// URI handler. Which basically just tells windows to open myth:// URI links with Media player or VLC or whatever you want, similar to the way that it knows to use Firefox to open http:// links or ftp:// in whatever ftp program/web browser you want.
