[mythtv-users] Seeking help with XBox+Myth+XMBC

[Sasha Z]

Honestly there are a few things from XBMC that I would like to see
make it to myth... like the configuration system (ESPECIALLY FOR
OVERSCAN!!), or the ease with which one can "on the spot" view a video
that isn't in the db.

As for integration with XBMC... what's wrong with a common file server
to share the videos? Sure you won't have db info on XBMC, but does it
really matter that much? You have channel and date right in the
filename.
