<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm going to be building my own LCD's and I was
wondering if there is a script or how would I go about making a script that can
display backend information such as tuner status. The current setup through
mythfrontend only displays the menus as you move through them in the EPG,
which is pretty useless to me. I would like it to display the status [idle]
[recording] maybe per tuner or just local backend, as i'm setting up slaves. As
well as as if it is recording the show info would be nice. I realize that <A
href="http://backendip:6544/">http://backendip:6544/</A> gives all this
information, but it would be great to have that sumarized information available
on an LCD screen. Any help would be appreciated...just point me in the
direction, i'm clueless as to where to begin ie where to get this information
from and where to write it to for the lcdpanel</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
