[mythtv-users] Streaming Internet Radio Options

[Steven Cruysberghs]

I'm using a 3rd option with mythvideo. I have a folder in my videodir with
a .lnk file per radiostation like :

-sh-2.05b$ cat stubru.lnk
mms://streampower.belgacom.be/stubruhigh

I have the following videotype in mythvideo
extention : lnk
playcommand : mplayer `cat %s`

You can even put the station logo as coverfile so you can see what you're
listening to :-)

> 1. A "hack" (no offense) using mplayer
> Manual stream config in xml file

> 2. MythStream (unofficial MythTV plugin)
> Support for streams in DB

> 3. A patch to MythMusic that allows streaming internet radio
