<br>Thanks for your response - what do u think is the most viable way of<br>getting as much of the mythfrontend to work on the MVP ? Developing mvpmc<br>further ? or could something clever be done with exporting displays from
<br>another box ? getting some kind of mythfrontend server that the mvpmc<br>could connect to ? Or just waiting to see if a higher spec MVP comes onto<br>the market ?<br><br>Cheers<br>Liam<br><br><br>On Sun, 25 Sep 2005, Ian Caulfield wrote:

not done any Linux development let alone Mythtv so forgive me if this
is totally inappropriate, but couldn't most the the mythfrontend be run
as an X client (or server never get this round the right way) and then
let the server do most of the work?<br>
