[mythtv-users] cidbcast mythudprelay and caller id on my laptop?

I'm currently using caller ID, cidbcast and mythudprelay to put the phone
caller onto myth's OSD. It works great. What I would like to figure out is
if anybody knows how to grab this broadcasted info and put it onto my laptop
or other desktops . I know cidbcast get's the caller ID info and broadcasts
it on port 6948. mythudprelay then recieves this info and translates it's
XML to an output XML that myth requires. mythtvosd then recieves this and
put's it on the screen for myth.

Since the info is being broadcast there should be a way to grab it and
display it with xosd on a desktop not currently running myth.

Any ideas?
