[mythtv] (own)Cloud Plugin

[rene fischer]

My last post was not very clear. I will explain again.

My use case for calendar is:
I stand up in the morning and turn on mythtv. Then I will check my private 
Dates of the day (not tv-recording or so). On work or so I edit my dates via 
web or smartphone and mythtv should display this changes. After work I will 
edit my dates from television. Therefor I would like to use a mythtv plugin.

My use case for multimedia is:
I plug in my memory-card or camera (e.g. via usb) and i see my fotos. This can 
now be downloaded to  cloud through mythtv.

I hope this explanation helps to understand my idea.
