Playing video on TV (with or without MythTV)
Posted: 12 Nov 2006 20:24
I am looking for a way to play WMV videos streamed from Internet using VLC and or VLC wih MythTV. Basically, I want to be able to view about 10 streams available on the Internet through computer on TV.
I will need to be able to change streams through remote control without having to type full URL.
I tried to use MythTV, and although it has a lot of functionality for recording and playing captured content, it lacks ability to stream and record internet feeds.
I would think there should be a simple way to configure VLC (maybe with skin) to allow for TV-style nagivation and control.
I can use both Windows and Linux to run any software as long as I can make it work.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thank you!
