Eric,
Yes, I was just able to watch video using VLC streamed from the HDHR. I
did have to open a port and set the HDHR to stream to that port, so I'm
wondering if that might be my problem. Is there a port that Mythtv uses
for the rtp stream from the hdhr that I might have to open in my firewall?
Thanks,
Jeff
