Subject: MythNetTV beta 4



Hi again.



MythNetTv is my video downloader / aggregator / importer thingie for MythTV.



I've spent a little longer testing this beta, and I think it's getting

kinda ready for a real release number or something. New things in this

version (from the change log):



  - Made --update more terse

  - Made --update more liberal about what it considers to be a video,

    specifically added video/quick time and text/html (to work around the

    rather broken http://www.mobuzztv.com/uk/rss/quicktime

  - Added a filter option to --download to constrain it to only

    downloading shows with a specific title

  - Added transcoding for mov and wmv2 files

  - If there is a straggling import, and it causes as error, just skip

    it and mark it as imported

  - Don't reset transferred data statistic when we start downloading a

    show again

  - Started implementing moniker support for downloads

  - Unsupported monikers will result in an attempt to download the URL

    using mplayer (which works for RTSP and MMS at the least)



Yes, that's right. You can now download only shows with a specific

title, and you can also download any protocol which mplayer supports --

specifically, RTSP and MMS are now supported.



Now, if only there was a non-sucky way to work out what streams

abc.net.au were offering at any given time...
