Post subject: | xine or mplayer for live tv |
From what I have read, myth uses it's internal player for live tv and playback of recordings. Is there any way to set it to use xine or mplayer? If not, what do I have to do to move a tv recording to the videos directory and use mplayer to play it back? Can I just move it? I'll just try and get back to you. |

What do you think that they buy you over the builtin viewer? As for making the files visible in the videos directory, you can just symlink it with a script like /usr/local/bin/mythlink.sh which creates the /myth/pretty directory. All it would take is making a copy of that, and changing all occurances of "pretty" to "video" and making it smarter about not deleting real files. |

I did not want to say untill I had a chance to test it. I recorded some of the video that I've been having trouble with. Playing the video through xine or mplayer both look better than through myths internal player. Don't ask how I came accross this. It has to do with an M$ product and a commercial DVD player. mike |
