Not exactly. You're trying to play the stream from
myth://Videos@ip_address:6543/Movie_name.avi, which is MythTV's internal
URI for content streamed from the backend to the frontend over the
internal protocol. This protocol has always exists since the beginning
of MythTV, and used to drive recordings across the backend/frontend
split. MythTV 0.22 added the ability to use this protocol for more than
just recordings, and allows you access your video library remotely
without having to mount the content over NFS. It is part of the shift
to allowing for configuration-free frontends to be added.
