Sitting here in my computer room, I realized that even with all the myth-dedicated hardware in the room, the machines with the most horsepower aren't even being used for myth. In the evening that's not a big deal, since they are in use. However, late night and all throughout the day, there's a lot more that could be done. All of us have at least (1) windows box in our networks somewhere....
Which led me to thinking... --- the WinMyth project seems to be doing fairly well -- mysql support for Win32 is good -- it's fair to say any codec available for linux is available on win32. Has anyone given any thought to a stand-alone program on Win32 that could check the job queue, and handle jobs, IE transcoding or commercial flagging? JobQueueLite? Foundational things like SMB access to a share containing the .nuv files would be a preq, as would MySQL libraries, and installed codecs. Heck, take it one step further. It would be great to have the same thing for *nix. Right now you have to do a full install of mythbackend just to get commercial flagging on a 2nd/3rd/etc machine. Anyway, just kinda thinking out loud. At least in my case, I could add 3-4 more machines to my job queue, which would bring up some fun possibilies. thoughts?
