[mythtv-users] MythLCD questions

[David Wood]

I am the least knowledgeable person about MythLCD, probably, but I did 
look through the source.

My impression of it is that it's a bit of proof of concept code, 
demonstrating how you could do integration with LCDproc. The only way to 
get it is to rebuild all your myth components from source with the lcd 
portions turned on. It seems like somewhere between a demo and a 
work-in-progress; in fact, in my brief inspection it wasn't clear if there 
is anything working yet.

It looks like a neato project, though, if you can code, know the relevant 
codebases (or want to learn them), are willing to work from the cvs tree 
instead of the release, and have the time to devote to this decidedly 
non-core feature. I keep meaning to play with it but, there is always 
something more important...
