Are you looking to be able to play your TV files also? What would be a
good way to duplicate files from the backend to the car PC for
something like that? Anybody got any good ideas?

I'm guessing you would run this myth box as a back and frontend all in
one. Then you would mount a network drive that holds the Tv files. You
would have to run a script that duplicates the files then also enters
the information into the database for these files. Does that sound
about right. I could see this being a nice answer for my trips wit
hthe kids. record a full day of Disney and transfer to the car.
