James, 

I'm using mvpmc with my mythtv .16 and it works fine, actually great.
I've heard that any mpeg2 stream will work, but I've only been able to

play my recordings.  It works with the myth protocol to play, but I've

heard that to play anything other than the recordings, the source needs

to be NFS-mounted.  The one feature I do miss is auto commercial skip.
You can skip in 30 second increments, or skip to a % of the video.
Someone recently got music playlists going, but I haven't tried that
yet.

I can do wireless over an 802.11g Linksys connection and I rarely have

problems.  My WAP is about 20 feet away from the mvp and it plays 
videos just like it were wired.
