MFD

Newbie question - couldn't find much detail on the list archives:

What is MFD/MFE? Sounds interesting from what I've read in the
archives, but I still can't figure out what exactly it is.

A URL and a smack upside the head is fine if there some documentation I
missed.

http://cvs.mythtv.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/mfd/README?rev=1.15&view=markup

Still under development, only available from CVS, may cause terrible things
to happen to your setup if you download it, build it, or run it.

Basic idea is to take the notion of the myth transcoding daemon (headless
daemon that keeps processing whether any client is attached to it or not),
and extend it to content sharing (on a local network), audio playing,
streaming, etc. Also, open interfaces and "standardized" protocols for
exchange content with other applications. And a bit of Rendezvous/zeroconfig
thrown into the mix.

Only thing it does of any immediate use to an end user is let you play
mythmusic content in iTunes, or iTunes content from an mfe. Oh, and control
audio playing from a web browser (http://host_mfd_is_on:2345/).

Re: MFD [In reply to]

Sounds nice. That actually sounds a lot like a superset of MPD
(http://www.musicpd.org), which I use at home for my music server. I
don't know how far along MFD is, but maybe there's something in MPD that
you could take advantage of?

There's a web interface for it too.

Re: MFD [In reply to]

Maybe I miss understood something : I read this file but I don't
understand how to get it working with mythfrontend ? Is there a new
menu that should appears ? or new options ? does it replace mythmusic
? (I think the answer is no for the last question)
Or is it a daemon that can only be controled by telnet and/or web ?

Mythfrontend does not seems to see a new plugins even if I restart it
several times.

sorry for the noise but I'm very interesting in this functionnality.

Best regards
Guillaume

Re: MFD [In reply to]

check mfd and mfe out of svn.

i also don't know what parts of mfd are working and wich not.

the mythmusic plugin doesn't use mfd at the moment, but mfe is an example
for a plugin wich does.

then lunch your mythtv with mythfrontend mythmfe and you will see
somthing...
