Here's another pie-in-the-sky request.

Is there some kind of way I can control the frontend machine through the network? We're currently in a rather spread-out place, and sometimes I'd like to watch tv and programs another floor away. The frontend and backend are all on the same machine, and the output from that is piped all over the house.

LIRC seems to be able to signal the app to do things, is there some way to extend that even more?

Thanks.


People like http://www.x10.com make IR Repeaters. Just put one in every room and it will repeat your signal to the destination you want to go. I'm sure there are other and probably cheaper places that make them.

I was hoping to use my network. I'm sitting at a PC right now, but Stephane Grappelli is on CoolTV downstairs!!! (gasp) This time I set it to record, which works for channel changing, but I have to run all the way downstairs to get to recorded programs to watch it, then run all the way upstairs again (gasp gasp... never thought watching TV would give me this much exercise! :))


Just wondering if there's some kind of signalling queue, or something like that.

I suppose this might make for trouble if someone's actually watching the program downstairs :)...
