I'm still on 0.20 though. Plan on doing 0.21 after Hardy is released in April, afterwhich I'll give this a shot.
I figure GMythStream will be required on the backend? What's the hardware requirement? My backend is currently a PIII 733 with 512MB using PVR-150 cards - will that be sufficient?
No gmythstream, tablet-encode or anything else. It is a full port of the myth frontend to the N8x0, thanks to Yani who is a hero for getting it this far.
However, there is no video currently, although all the other features such as programme guide, deletion and job scheduling work as normal.
I would not hold your breath for video, especially live tv. From playing about with different files in mplayer the Nits do not have the clout to play the full-fat videos from myth. I think that we will need to transcode down the recordings to a playable size. It should be possible to keep the resolution, and squeeze the bitrate down, so they are still viewable on a telly as well.
I'm currently uploading a rather blurry video to youtube demoing the frontend, when it's complete and I have a URL, I'l post it straightaway.
Once again, this is all down to Yani, I'm just a user.
Great work. I have been waiting so long for this to arrive.
Unfortunally I cannot find the package libmysqlclient15off.
Please post a link to that file.

Hm, that's the old mysql packages I had up, I'll put them back up for now, but what package is requiring it? I thought I had changed the dependency for libqt3-mt-msql.
Mythtv-setup is in the backend package, because it's a backend configuration program. All the frontend configuration is done in the mythtv frontend under setup. You can do some backend configuration there too, like the recording profiles. If you really want to run mythtv-setup on the device you could do it over ssh from the backend of course.
You will probably have to either configure a transcoding profile and then tell mythtv to transcode the recordings you want to watch, or simply change your recording profile. I have a bit about my experimentation with that in the first page.
Anyway experiment with different settings and see what works for you, in the worst case a video will either not play (in which case you should be dropped back in mythtv after a timeout) or will have jerky playback.
I wasn't expecting video to work at all without some patches.
