I noticed in SVN there is a new mythweb 'module' called 'stream'.  I
compiled SVN mythTV in a VM and installed SVN mythweb, but I couldn't
get it to work and haven't had time to play some more.

I am not saying you should move to SVN, however, I am *wondering* if
such functionality (or functionality that rivals mythStreamTV) is
coming to the normal install in 0.20.  Anybody know for sure?
