I have been hacking at getting the Roku to work with Myth and making little progress. Most of my problems are that I don't understand Myth well enough yet. I just created my first backend server last week.
Currently I can manually transcode a video to h.264 and the roku plays it. I am working on getting a user job to transcode it, but I think user jobs occur after the the video has been completely recorded. I was going to hand roll some Perl to generate the XML, but if Myth is already doing it... Thanks for those links. At this point I have no idea how to transcode a show that is being recorded. I really need to discover the Myth workflow, what happens when, and where the hooks are to tie into it.
We should probably start a separate Myth thread. I will admit that I am only interested in getting to work with Myth, other media servers hold no interest for my.
