'''[[MythStreamTV]]''' [http://jochensserver.dyndns.org/]- Live transcoding and streaming of MythTV recordings over the network. This is a patched version which works with the new MythWeb. The orginal version can be found at sourceforge [http://mythstreamtv.sourceforge.net/ here], but it won't work with SVN or 0.19 of MythTV, for this you have to use the patched version found under the first link. <br> NOTE: There are issues to resolve even with the latest patch from "jogibear9988".  With a little time, these can be resolved.  One of the issues is that some language strings are missing (Example:  "modules/_shared/lang/English.lang").  Please run the script "build_translation.pl".  A couple other issues exist, but they are simple to resolve.  With a little time, the system can even be modified to stream live TV.  It works well.

Outdated

The following plugins need to be updated for the latest MythTV release. Some of these plugins are unavailable but are kept just to keep track of the types of plugins that have been done in the past.

The most recent versions are on top of this list.

Plugin Last Supported Version Description
TVWish 0.27 Generate/grab a list of the hundreds of top movies you wish to see someday, and arrange for them to be recorded if they are ever on TV. Instead of browsing what movies are on in the next 2 weeks, just pick all your movies at once, and eventually they'll show up. Look for and record the pilot episodes of hundreds of the top TV series of all time, in case you missed them, or want to try them out. And a lot more.... There is a report, [1] that this works for 0.23. Works with mythepisode plugin.
MythExport 0.27 MythExport is a script that can be added to MythTV as a User Job and used to export recordings into a format playable on portable devices such as iPod Video, iPod Touch, and PSP. Besides converting your recordings, this script also grabs data from the MythTV MySQL database and injects it as iTunes data into the exported video so that it will show up correctly on your iPod. Now includes RSS feed and daily cleanup functionality.
MythPodcaster 0.27 Transcoder & RSS Publisher for MythTV Recordings. RSS feeds link to FFMpeg-transcoded copies of MythTV recordings. Feeds can be viewed in RSS-capable web browsers and feed aggregators, including iTunes. Pre-configured with single-pass, two-pass, progressive-download, and Apple HTTP Live Streaming transcoding profiles.
MythGetTrailers 0.25 This bash script for MythVideo re-purposes the trailers’ folder and synchronizes the 40 most popular movie trailers on YouTube, with selectable video formats. This allows users to watch a random sampling of new and popular trailers whenever movie viewing begins. Features and Download: MythGetTrailers Website
MythMediaMonitor 0.25 MythMediaMonitor is an advanced bash shell script designed to incorporate external media directly into the recordings screen of Mythfrontend. It includes many features, including auto extraction of MKV subtitles to SRT for playing in MythTV’s internal player, TVRage data grabbing, many filename formats, and support for Movies. Features and Download: MythMediaMonitor Website
nuvexport 0.25 Command line script for exporting recordings to a number of formats including DivX, Xvid, DVD, SVCD, NUV+SQL. Easy to use: Select recording and options from numbered lists. (more info: nuvexport website / nuvexport wiki)
nuv2avi 0.25 Command line program for converting MPEG-4 .nuv files to DivX. It does not recode the file, so it is very fast, but noisy recordings will probably have audio sync problems.
Mythnuv2mkv 0.25 Converts MythTV nuv files to mkv, mp4 or avi files. Can be run as a MythTV User Job or at command line to convert MythTV recordings or stand alone files. The converted recordings can either replace the nuv one or be copied to another location. If this other location is under the MythVideoDir, tmdb will be searched, a MythVideo db entry created and a coverfile file created if one was not available at tmdb.
Mythvidexport.py 0.25 Tool to export recordings into MythVideo. Capable of using metadata from listings provider, or grabbing from TheTVDB (through ttvdb.py). Can be run from the commandline, or as a user job.
MythMagic 0.25 TiVo style recommendation engine for MythTV. MythMagic selects and automatically records shows from the EPG based on previous viewing habits. Recordings can be accepted or rejected to improve recommendation accuracy. Works silently in the background. Records at very low priority to avoid interfering with your own recordings.
mythtv-status 0.24 Display the status of a local or remote MythTV backend. Can send an email if there is a recording conflict (soon to be extended to other issues). If installing the Debian package then your MOTD will be updated on a regular basis.
MythMiner 0.24 Recommendation process using text mining techniques with the open source data mining software "RapidMiner". You can receive daily recommendations based on the programs you did and didn't record from MythMiner. It can schedule recordings with low priority if the confidence is high enough, but this can be deactivated, so that there is no write access to your database. Not yet tested with 0.25pre, please fill in if it works.
IMDB Bulk Updater 0.23 A command line wrapper for mythvideo's tmdb.pl. This tool can be run interactively or from cron to import new videos and populate them with posters, fanart, and meta data where available. This tool is built into MythDora5 and later. The tool has been using tmdb.pl since imdb.pl was replaced in the mythvideo baseline.
Mythadder.py 0.23 Script launched by udev that automatically inserts, removes, and maintains records of video files on removable media in mythvideo.
