MythTV NZ

I’ve now managed to clean up the code enough to send the patches onto the MythTV team. Take a look at their trac ticket #3162. The attached patch will work against MythTV 0.20 out of SVN. For the moment I’ve mapped the FreeView MHEG EPG key onto F12, but this might change.

Still needs a little bit more work before the FreeView launch in May. For example I haven’t seen any interactive content to test with other than the EPG.

One other issue is most of the commonly used remote controls don’t have the extra keys required for the MHEG support. For example see the OpenMedia remote control layout page. I’d also like to update the Web based Virtual Remote to have the required keys.

OpenMedia plan to make this support available to their customers in advance of the FreeView launch here in NZ.
