Folks, I just ran across a review of Xperinet's home media server product in this month's sound and vision, and from the screenshots it sure looked like MythTV. So I went to their website at www.xperinet.com, and looked at their product line.
As far as I can tell, it appears to be version of Myth TV, focused on DVD and CD archiving. There is no mention of MythTV. From the highly positive article in S&V, it looks like they are adding features like bookmarks for chapters and other changes to Myth, but I can't find any source code on their site. Isn't this a violation of the GPL? At least they are being even handed though. It looks like they also have a Asterisk home PBX implementation that also doesn't credit Asterisk or release any source code for their PBX implementation. Also, it's somewhat amusing, but most of their products are named after nuclear delivery systems of some sort. They call their media server software MIRV (Multiple Independent Replay Video server), when of course the traditional meaning is Multiple Independently Targeted Re-entry Vehicle (ie multiple warheads on an ICBM), and their server products are called Polaris, Posideon, Trident (all sub launched ICBMs), and Titan (a USAF ICBM that carried a 5 Megaton warhead) (The Titan is their BIG server). Does anyone know anything about these folks? Don't they have to release source code to be GPL compliant? Thanks, Mike __________________________________ Yahoo! Mail Mobile Take Yahoo! Mail with you!
