[mythtv-users] mythtv minus tv

First, I just wanna say I love what I see already, and I'm just getting
started.  The GUI is far better than any similar software I've seen for
linux or windows.  Now, I am putting a computer in my car, and I would
like to use mythtv for controlling mp3s, movies, and weather, but I
don't want to watch tv or run the backend at all.  I have commented out
the three server connection lines in mythfrontend/main.cpp, and I'm
getting it to run, but after exiting any of the modules, the computer
freezes/doesn't accept keyboard input.  Anyone wanna help me out?
 
Another question:  Would it be possible to have an auxiliary module
added to mythtv that just spawns another outside program from an
accepted command?  I would love to be able to grab gpsdrive for driving
directions and such straight from mythtv.  Im sure others would have
different uses for being able to run an outside program on top of
mythtv.
 
Thanks, can't wait to see more and get my myth box running,
Jared
