Thanks. I am happy with control of Slimserver, but I dont really use mclient for music as I have a Transporter. Really trying to do a similar thing for video on the mvp (using mythtv) The Mythweb interface actually does most of what I want. Could just do with adding a button in MythWeb recorded shows to "Stream to mvp". I wondered if I could do this some how with vnc and a bit of hacking of mythweb. But cant quite see how. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Mvpmc-users mailing list Mvpmc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mvpmc-users mvpmc wiki: http://mvpmc.wikispaces.com/
