More specifically, MythStream is a Myth frontend plugin for *browsing & 
playback* of streams that originate external to Myth.  Presumably it 
can do video as well as audio streams if you configure an appropriate 
external app to play the stream.  MythStreamTV is for *originating* 
streams of recorded MythTV content that can then be played using your 
favorite streaming client (plus a patch to MythWeb that provides an 
interface for requesting said streams).
