The backend stuff just looks like a series of wrapper commands to interact
with a piece of software and telling it to play a given URL as well as
stop/start/etc. commands. MythTV already has a telnet interface with a PLAY
command. It seems like it would be easy for the backend script to simply
open the frontend telnet port and issue:
play file URL
and then also issue pause/play commands as needed
