trying to play around with mythtvosd but I can't really find much
information on it. I have tried running the following command but I
don't get any output to the screen while watching a recording.
# mythtvosd --template=/src/mythtv/programs/mythtvosd/alert.xml
--alert_text='hello' --bcastaddr=127.0.0.1
Sent UDP/XML packet to IP 127.0.0.1 and port: 6948
You have to have mythudprelay running, I always have it running as a
daemon. It listens on port 4958 and rearranges whatever it sees to a
format that myth likes/requires and rebroadcasts that on port 6949
which is what the frontend listens to. All the info is in the
contrib/mythnotify directory. Search callerid in the dev archives for
the rationale. I only skimmed it but I believe the why is there and the
how is in the mythnotify directory.
