 It would have to be a pull since playback might not actually have 
started for several seconds after you send the command.


Maybe the query location command could be extended or another could be added
for getting details about the currently playing video.

Filename, codecs, stream Id's, resolution/aspect and bitrates.

If anything I'd say a change should be put in so that you can differeniate between recordings and non recordings in "query location".

This is what I get when playing a video in mythvideo which is most definitely 
not a recording :)

# query location
Playback Recorded 00:00:18 of 01:20:18 1x 2008-02-06T13:34:59 453
