[mythtv-users] Live TV with the myth:// URI scheme - feature request sanity check

[Patrick Archibald]

Hi,

My node-webkit app launches mythavtest to view a recording with the
following code:

var gui = require('nw.gui');
gui.Shell.openExternal("myth://Default@192.168.1.5:6544/1323_20130118070000.mpg");

I would like to launch Live TV as well. I know there is allot going on
to set up live TV. It would be great if all that set-up was handled by
the backend so I could simply execute something like the following:

var gui = require('nw.gui');
gui.Shell.openExternal("myth://Default@192.168.1.5:6544/ChanId/3736");

Is this a valid feature request?

Here is a demo of my app: http://youtu.be/Ht6QL_vEJq0

Here is how I associate the myth:// URI scheme with mythavtest in
Ubuntu 12.04: http://platechnotes.patrickarchibald.com/2013/01/associating-myth-protocol-with.html

TIA.

Rock on, PLA
