Comprehensive Walk Through of iOS for Torc (Formerly MythTV Companion for iPad)

All:

Robert McNamara has forwarded a comprehensive video for his new iPad
app: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxQDLTSucxM

He states in the video that it is close to finished and will work with
both a MythTV 0.25 backend and a Torc backend. I am not sure what the
divide is between Torc and MythTV, but since this works for both, I'm
all in favor of it (and if anyone wants to enlighten me, I'd love to
know). I'll certainly be purchasing a copy or two from the Apple App
Store when it gets there.

George

I'm really interested in this app, it's the only reason I bought an iPad.
Well maybe not the only reason, but the most compelling. :-)

Maybe I missed it, but I didn't see any mention of Live TV control. Can a
user stream Live TV to the iPad?

I hate to just do a me too, but me too.
Is there a way to learn ( a lot ) more about this, help out, test, etc?

You watch live TV ?

You can always set a recording off and stream that.

The mythtv http live-streaming module doesn't support liveTV. you can
only stream completed recordings or videos

Boo, so I can't stream a recording in progress either? I have to wait until
it's done? That makes watching baseball games at work a bit difficult.

Its not free, but you can use the MLB iPad app. I think it blackouts
local games though, so that may not be very helpful (and why I don't
use it).

I tried that myself just yesterday! :) FWIW, supporting in-progress
recordings for live streaming is on Chris Pinkham's roadmap. Until
then, you'll need to start and immediately restart the recording every
so often and stream the chunks individually.
