Hi,

maybe this is slightly offtopic, but for those that have some more telephony
needs around the house, there is quite interesting solution. Asterisk is
open source PBX, that can be easily connected to outside scripts, that can
then do mythnotifies (there are quite some scripts already done for
Misterhouse program) - this setup is also useful for all other events - I
wrote simple plugin for Misterhouse that will send notifies on more
important events....

But the real problem with mythnotify is that it won't display if you are not
watching video or live TV. So you won't see all messages all the time.
That's why I use mythtv in combination with Freevo, that does this easily...

Regards,

Rob.
