This reminds me about an old joke about a pilot flying in<BR>
Seattle fog asking for directions to the airport...<BR>
<BR>
This is NOT what he asked for. I'm interested in the same thing.<BR>
I'd code it up myself if I had the time (but having a obsessive wife, I<BR>
do not). It would be VERY nice if Myth could handle this through the<BR>
frontend. Not everyone wants to transcode their DVD's and strip off<BR>
everything.<BR>
<BR>
Also cool would be some way to reference tracks directly possibly<BR>
in the same view as the recorded programs.<BR>
<BR>
The idea would be that the video jukebox and pvr can be seen<BR>
as a monster unified Tivo/Myth.<BR>
