[mythtv-users] Streaming recordings

Added the route to give it a try, made sure iptables isn't running. Both devices are on the same LAN segment and the NMT cannot see the mythtv device. 

# route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
10.0.0.0        *               255.255.0.0     U     0      0        0 eth0
link-local      *               255.255.0.0     U     1002   0        0 eth0
239.0.0.0       *               255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 eth0
default         10.0.0.1        0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0

Still don't see anything on port 5000 either so guessing there is a service which either isn't installed or isn't on. Searching for UPnP in /etc leads to nothing however.
